Up to 50% more adhesive bonds than standard shingles.
Designed in the popular architectural style, and made with our industry-leading NEX® Rubberized Asphalt, Legacy® Scotchgard™ shingles deliver superior all-weather resilience, a Class 4 hail impact rating, and include granules that reduce algae streaks and help clean the air of emission pollutants.
Legacy® Scotchgard™ shingles are best in their class – made with the industry’s leading technology (NEX® Rubberized Asphalt), highest impact rating (Class 4), strongest sustainability (upcycled rubber and plastic, smog-reducing granules), and superior warranty protection.
Up to 50% more adhesive bonds than standard shingles.
Twice the rain seals of standard shingles.
Up to 2X larger nailing area than standard shingles.
Up to 50% longer backing shim than standard shingles.
Up to 35% greater tear strength than industry standard (ASTM D3462).
Up to 65% greater granule adhesion than industry standard (ASTM D3462).
Class 4 hail impact rating (highest rating possible).
Class A fire rating (highest rating possible].
Each roof diverts the equivalent of ~6 rubber tires from landfill.
Each roof diverts the equivalent of ~4,000 plastic bags from landfill.
Each roof fights emission air pollution like planting ~2 trees.
Limited lifetime shingle warranty.
20 year non-prorated period.
Up to 130 mph (209 kph) enhanced wind warranty.
Limited lifetime algae warranty.
Shingles are sold in ‘squares’ – the amount of shingles needed to cover 100 square feet of roof. An average roof requires approximately 25-30 squares.
If you know the number of squares required to cover your own roof, enter it to the right to calculate the environmental offset of installing Malarkey’s Legacy® Scotchgard™ shingles.
If you don’t know your roof’s required squares, ask your contractor, or refer to your roof bid.

Roof DesignerMade with our proprietary NEX® Polymer Modified (Rubberized) Asphalt, which combines asphalt for weathering, with rubber and plastic polymers for added strength and durability, Malarkey shingles are engineered to outperform and outlast.
Incorporating upcycled tires and plastic bags to increase strength and durability, while reducing landfill waste, and integrating smog-reducing granules that help clean the air, Malarkey shingles are designed with the environment in mind.
When installing a complete 5-component system for your new roof, roofing (field) shingles are installed fourth, after the starter shingles, and prior to the hip & ridge shingles.
Combining high-grade asphalt with synthetic and upcycled rubber and plastic polymers, proprietary NEX® Polymer Modified (Rubberized) Asphalt formulation rubberizes the asphalt core of the shingle to deliver superior all-weather resilience and longer product life.
Legacy® Scotchgard™ shingles have up to 35% greater tear strength and 65% greater granule retention than the industry standard (ASTM D3462), carry a Class 4 hail impact rating, and meet the stringent IBHS FORTIFIED™ Roof requirements.
Recycled content can sometimes diminish product quality. Not so with our shingles. Polymers from upcycled tires and plastic bags are added to our asphalt formulation to improve shingle strength and durability, while reducing landfill waste – extending product life and landfill life.
Each average-sized roof of Legacy® Scotchgard™ shingles diverts the equivalent of ~6 tires and ~4,000 plastic bags from the landfill.1
Six bonds (3 laminate, 2 rain, 1 wind) of synthetic rubber adhesive resist dry-out and deliver extreme protection from high-winds, wind-driven rain, and shingle delamination.
Legacy® Scotchgard™ shingles have up to 50% more adhesive bonds and twice the rain seals of standard shingles.
It takes over 7000 nails to install a roof. Even one out of place can lead to leaks or void a wind warranty. The Zone®, our patented larger nailing area, provides a bigger nailing target and longer shingle backing to help ensure that every nail hits and penetrates both shingle layers for maximum protection against shingle uplift and blow-off, as well as leaks from troughing and ice damming.
The Zone® is up to 2X larger than the nailing area on standard shingles.
Ceramic-coated 3M™ Roofing Granules add lasting color vibrancy, while our NEX asphalt technology dramatically enhances granule retention – the shingle’s primary defense against hail, scuffing, and the aging effects of UV sunlight.
Legacy® Scotchgard™ shingles have up to 65% greater granule retention than the industry standard specification (ASTM D3462).
3M™ Smog-Reducing Granules, which blend inconspicuously into the shingle’s color, harness sunlight to photocatalytically convert dangerous smog gases like nitrogen dioxide (NO2) into water-soluble salt ions that rinse off the roof with rainwater, actively cleaning the air of these emission-based pollutants.
Each average-sized roof of Legacy® Scotchgard™ shingles helps fight smog air pollution equivalent to planting ~2 trees.2
Algae-resistant 3M™ Copper Granules blend inconspicuously into the shingle’s color and help prevent unsightly black streaks caused by algae growth.
Legacy® Scotchgard™ shingles feature Scotchgard™ Protector which utilizes at least 10% 3M™ Copper Granules, and come with a limited lifetime algae warranty.
Shingles are sold in ‘squares’ which is the number of shingles required to cover 100 square feet of roof. Many manufacturers package their shingles to deliver only 97-99% of a square, in effect underdelivering/overcharging from 1-3% of the product.
Legacy® Scotchgard™ shingles are packaged to deliver a full square, with 4 bundles equaling 100 square feet of roof coverage.
At Malarkey, we strive to make shingles that don’t need warranties, but just in case, we offer standard and extended shingle warranties, or our innovative ‘Your Choice’ warranty where we’ll match a competitor’s standard warranty.3
Roofs work better when the parts work together. A complete new roof requires 5 components – shingles, underlayment, ice & water barrier, starter shingles, and hip & ridge shingles.
If your roof is installed by a Malarkey Certified Contractor, who also uses the above Malarkey accessories as a part of a complete roof system, your roof is eligible for extended warranty coverage.
