Recycled rubber roof tiles emulate traditional slate. Injection molded for durability, the 50-year tiles are available with a 100-mph wind warranty, are Class A fire rated, and feature Class 4 hail resistance. Tiles can be modified on site with a utility knife and are easy to install (with 1½-inch roofing nails and pneumatic equipment).
