In addition to their full recyclability, another environmental benefit is Bartile’s patented, built-in cold roof system. By naturally allowing the free flow of air between the tile and the roof deck with our ventilated battens, up to 50% of the heat is diverted away from the attic, typically lowering energy consumption by 22% with corresponding reductions in your utility costs and overall carbon footprint. Further, the free-flowing air not only has insulation properties, but also serves to dry underlying structures more quickly, thereby increasing the lifespan of a home. For these reasons, our lightweight roofing tiles meet LEED requirements, and we are proud that LEED Platinum Certified homes have chosen Bartile tiles for their roofing.
