Many opportunities exist in both new construction and renovation to provide a more energy-efficient building. Green building has been, and continues to be, a significant and exciting development in the construction industry over the past decade.
Cool metal roofing offers energy savings significant to both economical and environmental standpoints. Titus metal roofs are energy efficient, sustainable, recyclable, durable, lightweight and cost effective. Our panels are made from 25-35 percent recycled materials and are 100 percent recyclable products. As a proud Energy Star Partner, many of our Cool Roof colors have reflectivity performance levels that meet Energy Star criteria at 2:12 pitch or greater offering considerable energy savings.
In our industry, LEED has emerged as the leading source for environmental standards. The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System™ is the nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high performance green buildings. LEED gives building owners and operators the tools they need to have an immediate and measurable impact on their buildings' performances.
