Vermont Slate HP: hail proof
Euroshield calls Vermont Slate HP the world’s first and only factory-warranted hail-proof roofing. It is warranted against impact damage from hail of any size for the first 20 years, then reverts to the standard warranty for hail up to 2" for the next 30 years.
In Euroshield’s extreme impact test, Vermont Slate HP panels withstood a simulated 4" hailstone fired from an air cannon at 183 mph. It is priced between asphalt shingles and premium roofing such as metal, synthetics, cedar and slate.

Is Euroshield made from recycled materials?

It's also Canadian-made, produced in Alberta, so it's designed with this region's climate in mind. Iron Shield Roofing installs Euroshield for homeowners who value both sustainability and performance.
Is VeroMont HP good for Edmonton's hail and climate?
Yes — Euroshield's rubber shingles are known for strong impact resistance, which is a major advantage in hail-prone Alberta, and the material stays flexible and durable through freeze-thaw cycles, wind, and temperature swings. Being made in Alberta, it's built with this climate in mind. Iron Shield Roofing often recommends Euroshield for homeowners specifically concerned about hail.
How long does a Euroshield VeroMont HP roof last?
Euroshield rubber roofing is built for long-term durability and is backed by a strong, long-term manufacturer warranty that reflects its expected lifespan. Because rubber resists the cracking, curling, and impact damage that age other materials, it's designed to last for decades. Iron Shield Roofing installs it to specification and will review the specific warranty terms with you.
What does VeroMont HP look like?
VeroMont HP is designed to replicate the look of natural slate, giving a home a high-end, dimensional appearance without the weight and fragility of real slate.

Is Euroshield VeroMont HP impact and hail resistant?
Impact resistance is one of Euroshield's defining strengths — its rubber construction is engineered to absorb impact and resist hail damage far better than many traditional materials.

How does VeroMont HP compare to real slate or asphalt shingles?
Compared to natural slate, VeroMont HP offers a similar high-end look but is far lighter, tougher against impact, and easier to install; compared to asphalt, it's far more durable and impact-resistant, though it costs more up front. It aims to combine slate's beauty with rubber's resilience. Iron Shield Roofing will help you weigh the options for your home.
How much does a Euroshield VeroMont HP roof cost?
As a premium rubber roofing product, VeroMont HP costs more up front than asphalt shingles, but its durability, impact resistance, and long warranty can make it cost-effective over the life of the roof.
