Malarkey Roofing Products Introduces Highly Reflective Commercial Cap Sheet

Solar Reflectivity and limited heat absorption are key design features of the new commercial cap sheet.

Malarkey Roofing Products®, the premier North American building materials manufacturer, introduces the new RCap™ Plus cap sheet for low slope, commercial roofing systems. The cap sheet features highly reflective white granules embedded into the membrane to reflect ultraviolet rays and absorb less heat.

“The RCap Plus cap sheet is an excellent product for roofing contractors and building owners in areas needing a highly reflective cap sheet that meets Title 24 requirements,” said Malarkey Roofing Products President Jim Fagan.

RCap Plus utilizes finely ground and tightly packed granules, and these granules ensure greater coverage in the membrane per square. Malarkey specially grinds the asphalt granules at its South Gate, CA manufacturing facility.

The solar reflectivity and limited heat absorption of the RCap Plus cap sheet are key design features of the product. This cap sheet meets CEC Title 24, Part 6 standards and has an initial Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) rating of 87. As part of a roof system, RCap Plus may help decrease energy costs used to cool the building and extend roof service life.
