COUNTRY AR collection
COUNTRY AR collection of double-layer roofing shingles comprises incredible color solutions that imitate diverse nature’s shades and nuances. Vibrant color blends and expressive shadow lines create a wonderful dimensional visual image. Copper-containing basalt granules prevent algae growth on the roof.
Built on a fiberglass base with oxidized bitumen and basalt granules, COUNTRY AR shingles are designed to hold their color and resist algae growth through years of sun, rain, and humidity - backed by a 50-year warranty. The shingle withstands flow at elevated temperatures up to 110°C, making it well suited to sustained tropical heat without softening or losing its granule bond.
Kentucky - a new shade in the COUNTRY AR collection is built on a double-shadow technology - two distinct levels of shading laid into the surface of every shingle - so the roof reads as dimensional and textured in both direct sun and diffuse daylight, not only when the light hits it at the right angle.
From hill-station bungalows in Mussoorie and Uttarakhand to coastal resort architecture, COUNTRY AR is used across a wide range of residential and hospitality projects in India - see the Gallery section below for completed installations.
