Bennington Copper
Shingles exceed all
possible expectations
for beauty, durability and affordability in a premium roofing product. These classic, solid copper roof shingles are the best buy in the roofing industry because any professional roofer can install them. Unlike other premium roofing materials, such as slate, cedar or tile, our copper shingles require no special installation skills, tools or deck preparation. The result is a gorgeous roof for a per square foot over time cost that is the lowest of any roofing solution available. We are proud to produce these shingles in America under exclusive license from Revere Copper Products, Inc., a name associated with two centuries of tradition and excellence. Bennington Copper Shingles are warranteed for 50 years and are an outstanding investment value.

AN ELEGANT & VERSATILE DESIGN ELEMENT

Bennington Copper Shingles are designed to look good on any building that would look good in shingles. Only better! Their simple, lightly embossed style works with diverse building types ranging from historic to contemporary and in settings both rural and urban. Their surface weathers gracefully and naturally to a green patina that both protects and adds distinction. Bennington Copper Shingles lend permanence and character to any architectural detail on public, commercial or residential buildings. They look equally at home on new work and on historic restoration projects.

RELIABLE WATERPROOF PERFORMANCE

We have engineered outstanding performance into our copper shingles. Bennington Shingles are actually a system comprised of two separate pieces - the visible, solid copper shingle plus a concealed joint pan. This two-piece system insures complete weather protection. Laboratory tests demonstrate that the Bennington's two-piece shingle system provides protection against wind driven rain at the shingles, not at the underlayment. Field installations prove that Bennington Shingles will withstand hurricane force winds and rainfall - 110 mph wind with eight inches of rain per hour - with no leaks.

GREEN IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE

Verdigris, the beautiful patina that naturally protects copper, is not the only "green" thing about a Bennington Shingle roof: when this low-or-no maintenance roof does wear out, every ounce of it will be recycled for its high salvage value. Environmentally, Bennington Shingles exceeds expectations by leaving virtually nothing to take to the landfill. Few building materials put so little burden on the environment. Few building materials are as green as our Bennington Copper Shingles!

FIRE RATED PROTECTION

Bennington Copper Shingles can protect your building from fire - and save insurance costs. Forest fire danger has become a very real concern for property owners in recent years. Bennington Shingles meet the requirements of a Class-A roof covering for new construction. This rating makes them ideal for fire-prone areas. Year after year, Bennington Shingles stand up to the harshest forces of man and nature - temperature extremes, ultraviolet radiation, environmental pollutants - and even fire.

AFFORDABLE AND EASY TO INSTALL

Everyone who gets to know our shingles, loves our shingles, and not least because of their low per square foot cost installed. Because any skilled asphalt shingle roofer can install this roof, installation cost is a fraction of that of other premium roofing materials such as slate, wood shingles or tile. They weigh 140 pounds per square, about half the weight of asphalt, so no roof reinforcement is ever necessary nor any special sheathing or venting. Each 48" by 9" shingle produces 3 square feet of coverage, over twice that of asphalt, so the work installs quickly. Since the shingle relies on separate joint pans rather than on leak prone vertical side locks, there is no predetermined installation sequence as with other metal shingles. As a result, installation may begin at any location along the eave and proceed in either or both directions. The installers find as much to like about our shingles as everyone else does. Consider also their longevity, fire rating and high salvage value and it is clear that our copper shingles are easily the most cost effective of all roofing materials!

LIFETIME WARRANTEE

Because Bennington Shingles are manufactured from solid copper, not foil laminate, they will quite possibly last as long as the building it protects. Our shingles have no applied finish; they will not chip, chalk, dry out, curl, lift, split, break, mold or mildew. What they will do is resist all the elements for years and look great. Extremely durable and weather tight the Bennington shingle system requires little or no maintenance. This is a self healing roof, so scuffs and scratches quickly weather into the field as the patina develops. We warrantee Bennington Copper Shingles for 50 years.

THE PREMIUM, CLASSIC, SENSIBLE ROOFING SOLUTION

We are pleased to bring to the market a roofing product that has met with such a warm, ready welcome from every sector of the building construction and restoration field. Homeowners, architects, and builders know that our exclusive licensing agreement with Revere Copper Products, Inc. means that they can buy Bennington Copper Shingles with confidence. They see the value in a premium, "green" roofing material that will not merely defy the elements but embrace them, year after year after year...
