Enviroshake®
The most authentic-looking shake roofing product on the market, featuring industry-leading durability and unsurpassed performance
A pioneer in the composite roofing industry, Enviroshake is renowned for its truly realistic cedar shake aesthetic.Our dies are designed using 3D images of taper-sawn cedar shakes for a truly natural appearance.
A cedar shake roof conveys tradition, beauty, and luxury, but natural cedar is vulnerable to such environmental stressors as freeze–thaw cycles, moisture, UV exposure, and wind.But there is a solution: Enviroshake offers discerning property owners the best of both worlds, offering the traditional beauty you want with the performance nature cannot beat.
Outperforms nature with the durability and weather resistance only an engineered product can offer
Enviroshake's signature roofing products are created using a superior composite blend.Our proprietary formulation and advanced manufacturing process deliver products with enhanced durability, longevity, and performance.
Multi-width profiles allow stunning natural variation
Achieve the variation of a natural shake roof with every Enviroshake roof.
All Enviroshake bundles are pre-shuffled with a combination of shake profiles, enhancing your home with the traditional look of taper-sawn cedar shakes.
Enviroshake®tiles are designed to weather over the course of the first year of installation to reveal their beautiful weathered matte cedar look.By design, Enviroshake products have some variation to authentically emulate the tones of natural cedar.After this initial weathering period, Enviroshake products will maintain their classic aesthetic and rich colour over the lifetime of your roof.
Making your dreams a reality.
If our standard colours are not what you have in mind, we are able to design a custom colour to fit your needs.
Due to the variations in monitors and browsers, the colour of the products may appear differently to viewers.We have made every effort to display as accurately as possible the colours of the products we carry, but cannot guarantee that what you see is an exact representation.We recommend asking your sales representative for current production samples to confirm your colour selection.
