GAF shingles benefits (HDZ)
- LayerLock™ Technology is a technology that mechanically fuses the common bond between overlapping shingle layers.
- The StrikeZone™ nailing area is so easy to hit that a roofer placed 999 out of 1,000 nails correctly in our test, which means a 99.9% nailing accuracy.
- If you install Timberline® HDZ™ Shingles with the required combination of GAF Accessories, you will be eligible for a wind warranty that does not have a maximum wind speed limit..
- The Dura Grip™ sealant is used with the StrikeZone™ nailing area to quickly attach the roofing material. Then, an asphalt-to-asphalt bond is created to make the roofing durable and strong.
- StainGuard® Algae Protection helps to keep your roof looking good by protecting it from blue-green algae discoloration.
- The new Timberline HDZ Shingles are fully compatible with the original Timberline HD Shingles. They offer the same look and feel that homeowners and contractors trust for beauty and durability.

A Sustainable Roofing Company
GAF is the largest roofing company in North America. They are committed to creating a sustainable future for customers, employees, and communities. We provide not only quality roofing products and services but also education and resources to help our customers make informed decisions about their home improvement projects.
Product Circularity
The idea is to establish a material take back program for recycled asphalt shingles with the goal of diverting 1 million additional tons from landfill annually by 2030. This will help create an economy in which roofs are reused rather than ending up as trash or getting burned!
Operational Waste Diversion
Operational wasting has been reduced to an all-time low with the help of our innovative solutions. Achieve 80% waste diversion rates across all manufacturing plants, recycle 100% of PMW TPO or shingle scrap and mat cores as well as retain whatever remains for reusing in some way!
Carbon Emissions Reduction
Reduce our carbon emissions by boosting energy efficiency, developing renewable energy technologies, and/or researching and/or innovating new carbon-removing techniques.
Green Portfolio Expansion
Conduct thorough life cycle assessments of all GAF’s core products, including solar and non-asphaltic roofing.
