LEED-compliant metal roofing colors

Englert Inc., Perth Amboy, N.J., a provider of onsite metal roofing and gutter systems, announced that all of its standard colors for metal roofing material, including its PermaMetallic colors, are now LEED compliant for steep slope roofing applications. All of Englert’s colors exceed the LEED Solar Reflective Index minimum requirement of 29, a key factor for architects seeking LEED certification for energy savings on roofi ng materials. “To our knowledge, we are the first and only roofing materials manufacturer to meet LEED SRI requirements on our entire palette of roofing colors, an important consideration for architects and building owners who want to use environmentally sound materials and who are seeking LEED certification for steep slope structures,” said Tom Dyszkiewicz, senior vice president of business development.
