Up to 50% more adhesive bonds than standard shingles – extra protection against shingle delamination.
Sustainable, High-Performance, Roofing Shingles
When It Matters®
Why a Malarkey Shingle?
Unlike standard roofing shingles, Malarkey shingles are made of Rubberized Asphalt for superior all-weather resilience, Upcycled Rubber & Plastics to reduce landfill waste, and Smog-Reducing Granules that help clean the air.
Better performance, and better for the environment – why not a Malarkey shingle?
