With 50 years of proven roofing performance over time, Sika Sarnafil, a market leader in thermoplastic roofing and waterproofing systems, is launching its social media campaign with the Sika Sarnafil Virtual Scavenger Hunt. In addition to accessing up-to-date content (e.g., maintenance tips, how-to advice, sustainability information, and other educational insights), U.S. contractors, architects, engineers, and other commercial roofing industry professionals can enter the Sika Sarnafil Virtual Scavenger Hunt contest on Facebook for a chance to win dozens of prizes, including 12 Amazon Kindles.
Sika Sarnafil’s Virtual Scavenger Hunt will be held over four weeks with four scavenger hunts, each open for one week from Tuesday, 1:00 pm ET to Sunday at 11:59 pm ET.

Each player will receive a roofing clue leading to the “treasure.” Players find the “treasure” as fast as they can to win. In each hunt, the first three eligible players to submit their “treasure” successfully will be awarded an Amazon Kindle. The next twelve players each week to submit their “treasure” successfully will receive a $15.00 Amazon gift card.
