Owens Corning Duration

What This Service Involves

Duration is Owens Corning's flagship laminate shingle, built with a distinctive woven fabric strip that reinforces the nailing area. That reinforced strip helps fasteners grip securely, supporting strong wind performance on Northwest roofs. Its dimensional profile and rich color blends give homes an attractive, textured appearance. The granules resist the blue-green algae streaking that thrives in our damp, overcast climate. As a widely trusted architectural shingle, Duration balances durability, looks, and value for Puget Sound homeowners.
