SCOTCHGARD™ PROTECTION FROM 3M

Regions that are prone to algae growth should inquire about our Ecoasis Premium™ shingles featuring the Scotchgard™ protection from 3M. The Ecoasis Premium™ shingles featuring the 20 year Scotchgard™ Algae Resistant Roofing System warranty from 3M are equipped with the most effective solution available against algae damage.

EXTREME WEATHER PROTECTION

Ecoasis Premium™ provides a durable barrier against extreme weather. Ecoasis Premium™ received the UL 2218 Class 4 Impact Resistance classification, the highest rating possible.

RUGGED DURABILITY

Malarkey’s revolutionary Ecoasis Premium™ shingle technology begins with a durable base layer of fiberglass mat. Malarkey’s unique fiberglass mat is coated on both sides with the SBS modified rubber asphalt which provides tensile strength and increased flexibility, protecting your investment.



Additional weight in the Ecoasis Premium™ shingle provides long term weatherability and granule adhesion; protecting your investment.

SBS MODIFIED ASPHALT

The rubberizing aspect of SBS increases flexibility and weatherability for your roof. The thermo cycling resilience of SBS modified asphalt provides greater granule adhesion for the shingle to create a better barrier from the elements. When granules stay on the shingles, your roof lasts longer.

ZONE®

One of the most critical aspects of a successful roofing project is correct shingle installation. Improper fastener placement is the leading cause of incorrect shingle installation and can subsequently void the warranty. Ecoasis Premium™ is manufactured using the patented ZONE® technology which includes a tapered nailing area over three times larger than other laminate shingles. The ZONE’s® larger nailing area dramatically improves correct fastener placement.

RAIN SEAL PROTECTION

Malarkey’s Ecoasis Premium™ shingle is manufactured with a double line of defense in the critical area for a laminated shingle, with double SEBS asphalt rain seal protection.



The SEBS asphalt has elongation capabilities of up to 800 percent, making it flexible down to zero degrees. The rain seal remains intact through the freeze and thaw cycle. Malarkey SEBS asphalt adhesive is superior to oxidized asphalt because of its cohesive and adhesive properties. The adhesive properties of SEBS asphalt join the shingle together while the cohesive properties prevent it from breaking apart from itself.

LIMITED WIND WARRANTY

Ecoasis Premium™ shingles come with a 110 mph/177 kph Limited Wind Warranty.

ENHANCED WIND WARRANTY

Ecoasis Premium™ shingles are eligible for a 130 mph/209 kph Enhanced Wind Warranty Protection when Malarkey’s Smart Start™ shingle is installed, shingles are six nailed, and Malarkey’s supporting products-Arctic Seal 401, Right Start™ UDL, or Malarkey Hip and Ridge Shingle (EZ-Ridge™ 224*) or Hip & Ridge Strips (225*-227*)** are used.

3M REFLECTANCE DIAGRAM

 

(A)* 3M Classic Roofing Granules: reflect less solar energy which may cause more heat to be transferred into a building.
(B)* 3M Cool Roofing Granules: reflect more solar energy away from the roof which can help lower air conditioning costs and improve indoor comfort levels.

*Reflectance rates calculated using 3M reflectivity test methods. Actual reflective results for asphalt shingles made with 3M Cool Roofing Granules will vary by application.
