The unique advantage of Seeton
Unique product line
SEETON has the state-of-art machine designed to improve the efficiency of sticking two layers. And we have the technology of double strips and cutting-edge technology of environment isolation.
Unique granules
Between two types of granule (dyeing granule and sintered granule), SEETON takes sintered granule as its raw material, which lays a foundation for better quality asphalt shingle.
Unique sanding system
We choose Triangular coarse sand which achieves better roof effect than normal sand.
Unique asphalt
The raw material of high-quality modified asphalt makes SEETON asphalts shingle more stable and solve the problems like flowing in high temperature and crack in low temperature.
Unique felt
The fiberglass melt we use, which is the same as Owens Corning, can prolong the life span of asphalt shingle and make it more stable.
Unique strip
SEETON adopts segmented rubber strip instead of a connected one, which not only lower the cost of asphalt shingle but also reduce the damage of intruded water.

Raw Materials
Fiberglass melt(95g/m2,calss A)
The quality of fiberglass melt determines the lifetime, crack resistance, waterproof performance and nails’ durability of shingles. Due to the good flexibility, SEETON's asphalt shingle can get flat again quickly after roll it up. Besides, the longitudinal and transverse tension of them reaches the ASTM D 3462.
Sintered Granules
SEETON sintering granule is imported from France company GROUPE CARLAC, the global strategies partner. It is made by 800 degree high temperature calcinations 8 times, then go through the Acidic and alkaline environment. The color of the tile is pretty steady.
Asphalt
SEETON asphalt use high purity and mixed at a proper ratio to guarantee the promise of 20 year warranty of 3-tab shingles and 30 year warranty of laminated shingles.
Adhesive
With a strong heat resistance, SEETON asphalt adhesive tape won't flow in high temperature.
