Decra Shingles

Corporate Summary

DECRA Roofing Systems manufactures several lines of stone-coated metal shingles. These shingles resemble architectural shingles -- tile, shake, and asphalt shingles. DECRA uses a zinc/aluminum-coated steel with an acrylic bonded layer of natural crushed stone. The stone gives the shingles a color finish which resembles traditional materials. These stone-coated shingles resist sun fading, UV rays, rot, and moss infestation. The metal shingles weigh less than traditional roofing products and offer greater longevity.

DECRA Roofing Systems manufactures four lines of shingles:

• DECRA Tile Shingles -- Resembles Mediterranean clay tiles. Available in 11 colors
• DECRA Shake Shingles -- Made of metal to look like traditional cedar shake shingles. Available in 8 eight colors
• DECRA Shingle -- Looks like traditional asphalt shingles. Available in 5 colors
• DECRA Shingle Plus -- Made to look like traditional wood-cut architectural shingles. Available in 5 colors

History

DECRA Roofing Systems is the North American brand for Tasman Roofing, Inc, a division of New Zealand’s Fletcher Building Company. During WWII, bomb-damaged buildings were repaired with corrugated tin roofs. The shiny surface of the tin was disguised from overhead planes by an application of tar and stone. After the war, the tin was inspected and found to have weathered the war years with virtually no weather-related decay. This inspired a process of stone coating steel roofs, which was developed into a line of products by Tasman Roofing in the 1950s.

DECRA's Warranty

DECRA Shingles carry a 50-year limited liability. The warranty is transferable within the first 10 years of installation and covers the shingles against manufacturer’s defect, resistance to wind of 120 miles per hour, and resistance to hail damage. If the shingles are defective, they will be covered for individual replacement cost for the first 20 years and on a prorated basis for the remainder of the period. As with all shingles, we recommend you thoroughly review the warranty.
