> Integrated Nail Tab

No separate clips or pieces required. For contractors, that's less to keep track of and fewer installation steps. For distributors, that's less to stock... in all cases saving time and money.

Unexposed fasteners - no fastening or nailing through the top of the panel eliminates vulnerable corrosion sites exposed to the elements. Better installation. Better quality.

> Patented Product Design

Truly weather-tight... reducing homeowner call-backs. The right and left sides of each panel form a seamless interlock and incorporate a patented design feature that redirects wind-driven rain and prevents moisture from reaching the underside.

Walkable... KasselWood's profile is designed to slope quickly back to the roof deck once installed. This provides a walkable area and minimizes damage from foot traffic. In addition, profile bends are rounded to help build rigidity into the panel.

Flexibility... to accommodate a variety of roof styles, the KasselWood product enables contractors to work right to left or left to right using staggered and standard offsets. For any application KasselWood is rackable allowing the installer to work alongside the installed product, rather than stand on it. Simpler and safer for a variety of applications.

> Designed For "Curb Appeal"

Traditional appearance. KasselWood's design utilizes texturing and multiple panel profiles to achieve a completely random appearance. Additionally, our proprietary, low gloss coating system applies a varied wood grain pattern to the shingles giving them a natural cedar shake appearance.

> Customized Trim Package

Many other metal roofing products use standard commercial trim accessories that only result in an industrial look. KasselWood uses a custom designed trim package that truly results in the elegance and refinement of a natural wood shake roof. Using this tailored system, KasselWood is also able to achieve superior resistance to wind-driven rain (110 mph plus) and wind uplift (Class 90+).

You and your customers will appreciate the aesthetics and appeal of real wood shake along with the strength and durability of the KasselWood product.

> Smart Packaging

> Installer Training

We provide support to contractors by offering tailored training programs that give the installer a complete and thorough understanding of the KasselWood product and its proper installation using familiar techniques.

> Crafted With Galvanized Steel

KasselWood is made from corrosion resistant, G90 Galvanized steel. One of nature's strongest materials, steel is quickly becoming a first choice for residential roofing applications due to its long term durability, low life cycle cost, excellent severe weather/hazard performance, and green building friendliness.

A KasselWood roof provides unmatched durability and has achieved the highest classification for fire (Class A), hail impact (Class 4), wind uplift (Class 90+), and wind-driven rain resistance (110 mph winds). In addition, KasselWood is impervious to algae growth, insect infestation and is a superior performer in heavy snow load conditions.

All these benefits derived from a 100% recyclable product that offers a practical life of more than double many traditional roofing materials makes KasselWood an astute choice for your customer's homes.

> Energy Efficient Kynar500® Coating

As a further protection to the steel, KasselWood comes standard with a premium Kynar500® finish. Known as the leader in the building industry for outdoor exposure applications, KasselWood's Kynar500® coating will keep the appearance of your customer's homes looking rich and vibrant year after year, far better than any other product roofing material.

Also incorporated into our standard Kynar500® finish is the new generation of energy efficient pigments that also improve the coating's life expectancy. As a result, KasselWood is a "Cool Roof" - designed to lower energy bills. Its complete color line meets the Environmental Protection Agency's stringent Energy Star® specifications.
