MORE THAN JUST A ROOF®
MORE THAN JUST A ROOF®
At Owens Corning we often describe our Roofing business as More Than Just a Roof®. That is fitting in so many ways when you consider the system of products and services we offer to our customers, but it’s also true when you think about the impact we are making toward our company’s commitment to make the world a better place.
We’re More Than Just a Roof® in how we give back to our communities, particularly through our Roof Deployment Project that has provided free roofs to more than 400 veterans in need.
We’re More Than Just a Roof® in how we want to help homeowners reduce energy use. Like through our COOL Roof Collection shingles, which are designed to reflect the sun’s energy and absorb less heat than standard shingles.
We’re More Than Just a Roof® in how we aspire to lead the industry to a more sustainable future by advancing efforts to keep shingles out of landfills and in the economy indefinitely.
To support our sustainability aspirations, our strategy is to leverage our strengths and ingenuity to make an impact. Like using our expertise in asphalt to advance the use of recycled asphalt in pavement, and using our material science knowledge to pilot the deconstruction of waste shingles for use as raw materials in the manufacture of new shingles.
The issues we are addressing are some of the most complex challenges facing the roofing industry. But Owens Corning approaches this work with passion and determination, understanding that our advancement of sustainable initiatives is part of our DNA.
We are proud of the journey we are on, and while there is more work to do, we are committed to doing our part.
