IKO expands performance shingle collection with the launch of Olde Style Weatherwood color. Olde Style Weatherwood | Dynasty & Nordic IKO Shingles Toronto, ON, Nov. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - IKO is expanding its performance shingle portfolio with the introduction of a new color: Olde Style Weatherwood. Available this month across the U.S. and Canada, the color is offered in IKO's Dynasty(R) and Nordic(TM) shingle lines. "IKO Weatherwood has long been a favorite brown blend in our Cambridge line," said Vince Carrier, Residential Product Development Manager at IKO North America. "With Olde Style Weatherwood, we wanted to give homeowners a color they love - warm, timeless, and versatile, while also providing the reliable performance and protection they expect from IKO." Inspired by the richness of natural, aged wood, Olde Style Weatherwood brings a classic, heritage-inspired look. The color's warm browns and soft greys pair well with log or stone facings; warm beige, taupe, or cream siding; and brown or bronze trim. It also complements metal accents such as bronze, copper, or steel, creating a grounded aesthetic for any home. IKO has also released a dynamic video showcasing the color in real-world applications. At the core of both Dynasty and Nordic IKO shingles is Proven Performance. * Dynasty shingles feature a Class 3 impact rating*, while Nordic shingles deliver Class 4, the highest rating for hail impact resistance. These ratings may help homeowners qualify for reduced insurance premiums where available. * Both lines are reinforced with ArmourZone(R) technology, providing a 1 [1/4]-inch nailing surface and a limited wind resistance warranty of up to 130 mph (210 km/h). * These IKO shingles feature tear-resistant tape backing to help prevent nail pull-through and blow-off, and FastLock(R) sealant that activates under sunlight for a strong bond against water infiltration. With Olde Style Weatherwood, homeowners get a roof that's as stylish as it is resilient, protecting their investment while enhancing the look of their home.
