American Standard Roofing Encourages Sustainable Roofing Practices

SOUTHFIELD, Mich. - Jan. 19, 2016 - PRLog -- American Standard Roofing has followed the national trend of going green. As the green building movement continues to gain momentum across the industry, many manufacturers and roofing contractors are adding a growing number of sustainable products and practices to their marketplace offerings. Arnie Goodman, owner at American Standard Roofing, discussed all of that in detail.

Mr. Goodman, in particular, talked about one aspect of one sustainable solution that has shown significant growth in recent years; asphalt shingle recycling. He emphasized how recycling tear-off shingles has become a growing trend in 50 major markets across the US and talked about how easy a sustainable solution shingle recycling is. He also added that shingle recycling is easy to implement and easy to market to customers across the industry as well.

"While asphalt shingles are durable, reliable and economical, making them very popular, their life does come to an end. Unlike the standard industry practice of re-covering these old shingles with a new layer, here at American Standard Roofing, we do it the right way. When it is time to replace a roof and dispose of the old materials, contractors now have more convenient, cost-effective options available to increase their ability to recycle and reduce waste," Goodman said.

“We have used recycling shingles as a starting point in going green when it comes to roofing. It was our first move that we made to adding green products and services,” said Arnie Goodman of American Standard Roofing. “We found that while there are homeowners who may not be interested in this, some homeowners do care about recycling. Catering to them gives us a distinct advantage in the marketplace,” he said.

"Roofing manufacturers and contractors have an important opportunity to lead the industry in making a significant impact on sustainable practices. Here at American Standard Roofing, we pride ourselves in shingle recycling. Thanks to advancements in recent years, shingle recycling represents an important contribution to sustainability in construction practices as well as green building objectives," concluded Goodman.
