BoralPure Smog Eating Tile · Premium product

A Roof That Helps Clean the Air

BoralPure was the first roofing product in the American building industry to reduce harmful, disease-causing pollutants from the air. Over one year, a 2,000 square foot BoralPure roof can oxidize as much nitrogen oxide as a car produces driving up to 10,800 miles.

Daylight activates itThe tile coating contains a photocatalyst that converts nitrogen oxides from vehicle exhaust into calcium nitrates.
Rain washes it cleanThe calcium nitrates rinse off the roof with rainfall, so the surface keeps working year after year.
It stays cleaner tooThe same coating helps hinder mold and algae, keeping the roof looking new.

Roof system components

A Tile Roof That Breathes Lasts Longer

Boral treats a roof as a performing system, not just a covering. Battens, underlayment, vented eave risers, hip and ridge blocking and flashings work together so moisture drains and dries, and heat vents out through the ridge. A home with the Energy Efficient Roof System can save up to 22% a year on heating and cooling compared with asphalt shingles.

PremiumElevated Batten System, Boral TileSeal self-adhered underlayment with a cool white surface, vented ridge and eave risers. Superior durability and the most energy saving.
PreferredElevated Batten System with GatorSeal underlayment that adheres without nails or staples. Better protection plus energy efficiency.
Contractor’s ChoiceA few upgraded code components and Boral’s roof ventilation with a durable underlayment, at a modest price.
Elevated Batten System diagram

Elevated Batten System

Raises every tile off the deck for airflow and drainage, and removes thousands of nail holes from the underlayment.

Energy Efficient Roof System page

How the roof vents itself

Air enters at the vented eave riser, rises under the tile and leaves through the ridge, with no mechanical parts.

Trim tile for each profile

Finishing touches

Rake, ridge, hip starters and apex pieces matched to each profile, so there is no need to mix colored mortar.

Roof system components page

Valleys, hips, ridges and vents

Weather blocking at hips and ridges keeps wind-driven rain out and adds ventilation; valleys channel water off the deck.

Battens, flashing, underlayment and eave components

Battens, flashing, underlayment, eaves

The secondary layer of protection on the deck, and the eave and gable treatments that finish the roof and keep pests out.
