Yes ones that i cut myself.
Recycled tire roof shingles.
With just a kitchen knife.
Euroshield rubber roofing products are manufactured from recycled tire rubber environmentally friendly and virtually indestructible.
It is a birdhouse with recycled tire shingles.
And then i just started.
I found a company called rubbur concepts that uses a compression mould to turn used tires into replica cedar and slate shingles.
As a result the recycled shingles have a similar aesthetic to the natural ones but are lighter cheaper more flexible and more durable.
In liquid form the ground rubber is poured into molds that resemble wood and slate shingles.
I also found that old tires are shredded and used in combination with asphalt to pave roads.
Rubber roof shingles are made from rubber powder which is ground from old tires.
These recycled rubber roof shingles from euroshield are an economic as well as environmentally responsible green building material.
Finally i wanted to know what other methods of tire recycling are out there.
Other rubber or synthetic shingles are made of recycled materials heated and injected into high pressure molds.
Euroshield s rubber roofing materials are cost efficient hail resistant and will never split or crack a permanent roofing solution with a 50 year transferable warranty.
In the trade a rubber roof is known as an epdm ethylene propylene diene terpolymer although manufacturers have brand names for their individual products.
Most rubber roof shingles are comprised of between 75 and 95 recycled materials including the re purposed tires.
The tread pieces are left in fairly large pieces so that the shingle benefits from the steel belting originally found in the tire.
Made from 75 recycled materials they re designed to.
