Asphalt roofs usually start showing some signs of aging after five to ten years depending on region and environmental conditions. The shingle’s granular coating starts washing into the gutters as the essential oils dry up, losing the ability to hold the granules in place.
Soybean oil based rejuvenators have been used to rejuvenate asphalt parking lots and roadways for the past fifteen years, making it the number one asphalt rejuvenator in the USA. We have adapted that same rejuvenator to extend the lifespan of asphalt shingles.
The lost petrochemical oils cause your roof to become dry and brittle. Just like moisturizer for your skin, our rejuvenate technology penetrates into the shingle, bringing it back to life.
Rejuvenated shingles have an 86% better granule adhesion rate and increased shingle flexibility, which helps prevent damage caused by wind and hail.
When applied, rejuvenate technology will smother moss, restricting the ability for it to grow further. The dead moss will wash off after a good rain or roof cleaning.
After completing a series of vigorous lab tests, our Koolau Roof Tech Rejuvenation solution has demonstrated that it can help reduce the effects of aging after being applied to asphalt shingles. This environmentally safe product improves shingle flexibility which helps the expansion and contracting that happens to shingles throughout the day. Greener Shingles uses a bio-based soybean oil solution. Greener Shingles Rejuvenator has been lab tested and field proven to decrease the effect of weather damage and improves granular adhesion by 86%.
Nearly 11 million tons of asphalt shingles make their way into landfills every year! Our Shingle rejuvenation treatment extends the life of asphalt shingles, keeping shingles on roofs and out of the landfills.
