Certification Underscores Manufacturer’s Commitment to Producing Energy-Efficient “Green” Products RIALTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A leader in the industry in manufacturing energy-efficient, “green” roof tile solutions, Eagle Roofing Products, a division of Burlingame Industries, today announced its Cool Roof Tile line has earned “Energy Star” approval. Eagle’s Cool Roof Tile line was selected based on the product’s ability to reflect sunlight and therefore heat from the roof, helping to prevent heat transfer into the home, resulting in up to a 30 percent savings in energy bills. “Eagle’s Cool Roof Tile line was designed to contribute to the creation of an energy efficient home or commercial building,” said Jay Banister, Eagle Roofing Products’ National Green Program Manager. “The result means less work for the air conditioner, less expenditure of energy and ultimately lower electrical bills for the owner.” The Cool Roof Tile is designed to reflect sunlight and heat away from the roof surface making the product eligible for Energy Star approval, a series of energy efficiency guidelines set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and U.S. Department of Energy. Eagle’s Cool Roof Tile offering is part of the company’s “Eagle Green” initiative, which includes the Eagle Solar Roof, Energy Saving Roof and an environmentally friendly manufacturing process.
