Wallaba shingles are an excellent way to beautify your home. Many people, however, aren’t aware of their miraculous properties. With so many shingle materials on the market, it’s wise to educate yourself about how these shingles are made and how well they can withstand the elements. Check out these four fun facts about wallaba shingles and the trees used to make them.

1.Impressive Durability

Wallaba shingles are some of the most durable around. The trees are found in South America and construction companies from around the world are seeking to source them. Unlike other wood shingles, wallaba is significantly more fire resistant and can withstand harsh conditions. It also has a natural resin to prevent it from shrinking or cracking in extreme temperatures.

2.Eco-Friendly

Wallaba trees require relatively little treatment before they can go up on a roof. Other shingles require a variety of harmful chemicals that aren’t environmentally friendly. In addition, their durability means that they don’t need to be replaced or maintained often. Thus, consumers don’t need to worry about excessive deforestation.

3.Natural Appearance

A natural wood appearance never goes out of style. Wallaba shingles have a pleasing natural wood look that can enhance homes of all types. They can be used to create a modern, southern, or revival architectural style that can separate your dwelling from your neighbors.

4.Sustainably Harvested

The popularity of wallaba trees has spurned an interest in commercial harvesting. Most harvesting farms are sustainably operated specifically for the construction and roofing industries. Their main competitor is cedar, which requires a chemical treatment and has a lifespan of 10 to 20 years. Wallaba tree in comparison can last up to 40 years.

If you’re considering a home renovation, the variety of choices might seem overwhelming. Learning as much as you can about wallaba trees can help you decide if this type of shingle is right for you.
