Innovation is in the details. It's even in the ones you can’t see. 🔍

In 1987, Malarkey introduced the first SEBS roofing asphalt. By combining high-grade asphalt with SEBS (Styrene-Ethylene-Butylene-Styrene) polymers, we didn't just create a new material; we engineered a "super glue" for shingles.

This rubberized adhesive provides a stronger bond that resists dry-out and stays flexible down to 0˚F, ensuring your roof seals out extreme weather year after year.

From our Oregon origins to the high-performance products that protect your home today—every breakthrough tells a story of our commitment to innovation.

We didn't just use asphalt; we made it better. 🧪

In 1977, Malarkey introduced the first polymer modified (SBS rubberized) asphalt base sheet in North America. By adding rubberizing polymers to the asphalt, we didn't just create a new product; we pioneered a whole new level of flexibility and durability for the roofing industry.

This breakthrough laid the foundation for our NEX® Polymer Modified (Rubberized) Asphalt, the signature SBS technology we are known for today.
