IKO offers various types of underlays, each designed to increase your roof’s resistance to water.
The use of an underlay is always recommended on roofs covered with asphalt shingles, regardless of the roof slope.
The requirements that the underlay must meet are:
- Protection of the wooden roof structure from adverse weather conditions before and during the installation of shingles.
- Providing additional protection against water penetration during the melting of ice accumulated on the roof surface, or during heavy rain with strong wind gusts that may drive rain under the shingles.
- Ensuring protection during a storm that has damaged the roof surface, e.g., by hail.
- Improving fire resistance ratings in accordance with local regulations for shingle-covered roofs.

Dimensional shingle in beautiful natural colours
Cambridge Xpress has a unique look and feel: it makes your house look a bit classical, somehow traditional but still contemporary. Thanks to its 8 natural colours Cambridge Xpress suits every home. These 8 colours are carefully designed with blends of granules. The original purpose of these granules is to protect the waterproof bitumen on your shingles. This protection could be guaranteed by other material as well, but only granules combine this protection with great esthetics. IKO coated granules are carefully blended to assure beautiful natural colours. These shingle granules are finished with a coating to prevent colour fading.
