Euroshield rubber roofing is an innovative, eco-friendly roofing solution made from recycled tires. These durable shingles are designed to mimic the appearance of traditional slate and shake roofing while offering unmatched impact resistance and weather protection. Euroshield roofing is specifically engineered for harsh Canadian climates, making it an ideal choice for Edmonton homeowners who want a roof that can handle anything Mother Nature throws at it.
Euroshield is a Canadian-made roofing product manufactured in Lethbridge, Alberta from recycled rubber tires. Each shingle contains approximately 95% post-consumer recycled content. Euroshield shingles carry a Class 4 impact resistance rating, withstand temperatures from –60°C to +60°C, and are available in slate and shake profiles. They carry a 50-year warranty.
Euroshield earned the highest possible impact resistance rating (Class 4 / UL 2218) specifically because it is made from rubber — a material that absorbs impact rather than cracking. During Edmonton's frequent hail events, Euroshield shingles resist denting, cracking, and fracturing that would damage standard asphalt shingles. Many Alberta insurance companies offer a discount of 20–30% on home insurance for Class 4-rated roofing.
Euroshield outperforms standard asphalt shingles in impact resistance (Class 4 vs. typically Class 1–3), temperature range, and longevity (50-year warranty vs. 20–30 years). It is heavier and costs more upfront but requires no maintenance, never curls or cracks, and is made from recycled materials. For Edmonton homeowners concerned about hail damage, Euroshield is the premium choice.
