We are also proud to be an Attic Breeze Certified Installer of solar attic vents.
Sustainable Roofing Shingles
Malarkey Roofing Products invented the cleaner, longer-lasting shingle technology known as polymer modified (rubberized) asphalt. The company pioneered the use of upcycled rubber in shingles, pioneered the use of upcycled plastic in shingles, and launched the industry’s first smog-reducing shingle.
For a standard home using 30 square of Vista shingles, a homeowner can take pride in the following environmental impact:
- Approximately 5 rubber tires diverted from the landfill per roof of Malarkey shingles.
- Approximately 3,200 plastic bags diverted from the landfill per roof of Malarkey shingles.
- Approximately 2 trees ‘planted’ to help clean the air of pollutants per roof of Malarkey shingles.
Longer Lasting Products
Malarkey’s NEX® Polymer Modified (Rubberized) Asphalt formulation enhances shingles’ durability, impact resistance, and granule adhesion, so shingles last longer – the very definition of sustainable.
Cleaner Manufacturing
NEX® Polymer Modified (Rubberized) Asphalt is a cleaner shingle-making technology, resulting in much less emissions than the oxidized asphalt method of making standard shingles.
Malarkey is also GreenCircle® certified for Recycled Product Content and Waste Diversion from Landfill at all its manufacturing facilities.
Cleaner Air
By integrating smog-reducing granules atop its shingles, Malarkey helps clean the air of emission-based pollutants.
Reduced Landfill Waste
By incorporating recycled materials into the shingles, Malarkey helps reduce landfill waste. Thanks to their continued relationship with the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle), they have been able to incorporate polymers from upcycled tires to improve shingle durability, while reducing landfill waste. In the 10th cycle of the Tire Incentive Program Grant, Malarkey diverted 83,333 tires.
Insurance Discounts on Class 3 or 4
Many insurance companies offer a discount when upgrade to a high impact shingle and it doesn’t cost that much more. Contact your insurance agent for details.
Pair your eco-friendly roof with a solar powered attic fan and you’ve got a beautiful, sustainable home that improves energy efficiency in a home, saves money, and is kinder on the environment.
Not necessarily. Comparing apples-to-apples, an eco friendly roof made with sustainable materials can cost about the same as a traditional roof. However, solar attic vents may cost more based on the components used and the size, steepness, and materials used on your roof.
