• Asphalt Shingles
• Crafted from reinforced organic material along
  with wood fiber and fiber glass, this is one of
  the most preferred materials used in commercial
  buildings. These shingles last anywhere between
  20 to 30 years and are available in a wide range
  of colors and textures, which gives them an
  elegant and stylish look. Laminated shingles are
  also available which have a life span of 25 to 50
  years.

• Built-Up Roof
• This roofing material is created by placing
  multiple layers of roof felt on top of each other
  and then laminating the pile together with
  bitumen. The roof felts used in the process can
  include bitumen-saturated felt, coated felt,
  polyester felt, or other fabrics. In order to
  protect the roof from the negative effects of
  natural elements, it is generally coated with a
  layer of a surface component made of asphalt,
  aggregate, emulsion or a granule-surfaced cap
  sheet.

• Metal Roofing
• Metal roofing can be made from a wide variety
  of metals including standing seam, steel,
  aluminum metal tie, and copper. They have a life
  span of 30 to 50 years and are mostly used by
  companies dealing with commercial structures,
  such as a stadium roof manufacturer in India.
  These roofs can not only withstand extreme
  weather conditions but can prove truly cost
  effective in the long run. Some flexible metals
  can be used for creating beautiful roof designs
  that are also quite strong.
