Types of Asphalt Shingles 

Organic

Organic mat-based asphalt shingles are created from recycled felt paper, which is then saturated with asphalt and coated with adhesive into which the ceramic granules are embedded. These shingles carry approximately 40% more asphalt than their Fiberglass counterpart. Due to this additional asphalt, these shingles tend to be heavier, thicker, and more costly. Unfortunately, these shingles are less eco-friendly, are more absorbent, and prone to warping over time. However, they are considered to be very flexible and very rugged.

Fiberglass

Fiberglass shingles consist of a woven fiberglass base mat which is then covered with a waterproof asphalt coating and then topped with ceramic granules. This process results in a thinner and lighter weight shingle that will shield your home from harmful UV rays. Due to the construction of these shingles, they carry a very high fire rate versus traditional organic asphalt shingles.
