– Castle Gray-EcoBlend: Light Gray, Medium Gray and Dark Gray

 
“California’s newly-adopted 2016 Building Energy Standards (Title 24, Part 6) will require use of more energy-efficient roofing materials starting in 2017,” says Ray Rosewall, CEO and president of DaVinci Roofscapes. “We’ve developed these new roofing color blends to meet, and in some cases exceed, these strict requirements.

 
“In recent years when wildfires and severe weather conditions have increased on the West Coast we’ve seen increased interest in our DaVinci fire- and impact-resistant synthetic shake and slate roofing products. The newly-introduced EcoBlend color family options allow homeowners and commercial property owners to use our durable roofing tiles while complying with the new Title 24 requirements.

 
“While Title 24 is unique to California, structures in all areas of the country can benefit from incorporating EcoBlend roof tiles. Because these tiles reflect heat and emit the sun’s energy back into the atmosphere instead of into a structure, they help reduce the cooling load, and, as a result, increase the energy efficiency of a building. An additional bonus is that a cooler roof contributes to a lower heat island effect in heavily populated areas. This in turn helps reduce your carbon footprint.”

 
Created in 1998, the Cool Roof Rating Council develops accurate and credible methods for evaluating and labeling the solar reflectance and thermal emittance (radiative properties) of roofing products. The company shares this information with architects, specifiers, builders and all other interested parties.
