EUROSHIELD Rubber Roofing Products were created 21 years ago with the goal of diverting and recycling the tremendous deluge of used tires ultimately destined for landfill. Years of research and development led to the creation of a unique formula, containing approximately 95% recycled materials, for the production of the world's finest synthetic roofing products available on the market today. From 600 to 1,000 rubber tires are used in the production of a EUROSHIELD roof for an average-sized home. Scrap material generated during the installation process can be collected and recycled again -- virtually eliminating environmentally harmful waste.
