Asphalt
The IKO Asphalt Shingle Roof consists of mainly asphalt saturants, coatings and fibreglass base materials. These components are then combined during the production process. Asphalt is a unique material which occurs both naturally and as a by-product of crude oil refining.
The mat is then coated with asphalt which contains mineral fillers and makes the fiberglass shingle waterproof.
Two distinct layers are then laminated together with asphalt sealant and thereby combing the strength of two shingles for better quality.
