Three years ago, the Center for Environmental Innovation in Roofing launched a new sustainable roof rating program called RoofPoint. Developed through an industry-wide consensus process and supported by a grant from the Roofing Industry Alliance for Progress, the mission of RoofPoint was to gain visibility and recognition for the high-quality roofs our industry delivers on a daily basis across North America — roofs that save energy, extend service life, and make buildings better and safer for the people who live and work in them.
Now after three years, we have certified more than 300 RoofPoint projects across North America. In our database, you can find roofs covering private and public buildings of every size and function in almost every U.S. state, as well as Canada and Mexico. These outstanding projects include every major roof system type, from asphalt to single-ply to metal and spray foam. Best of all, these roofing projects have great stories to tell: new ways to save and produce energy; advances in recycling and material reuse; innovative strategies to save and use water resources; and, most importantly, time-proven practices to extend roof service life.
