IKO MarathonTM Plus AR Traditional 3-tab Shingles. 
Beautiful Basics with Built-in Blue-green Algae Resistance.

Traditional 3-tab asphalt shingles like IKO Marathon Plus AR continue to be very popular with homeowners. And it’s not just because of their back-to-basics price. These shingles are steady performers that have stood the test of time against the ravages of Mother Nature.

It pays for you to find out what your prospects’ needs are before trying to upsell them. Perhaps they’re not planning to stay in the house for too long. Or perhaps they’re planning to sell their home and just want a quick spruce-up in curb appeal, to potentially fetch a higher selling price. You’ll earn their trust if you can show them how IKO Marathon Plus AR might be just the ticket, without having to spend more than necessary.

IKO Marathon Plus AR shingles are of solid construction.

IKO FastLock sealant strips along the bottom edges have one of the fastest tack times in the industry, even in extreme cold weather applications*. When activated by the sun’s radiant heat, they become extra-tacky and create a strong, aggressive bond to ensure maximum protection against wind uplift, blow-off and water penetration. That means potentially fewer call-backs for you.

*Please refer to installation instructions regarding the need to manually seal the shingles in cold weather applications.

25-year Limited Warranty

These shingles come in a large metric size so your crews can install them quickly and easily, saving on time and labor costs. Their 5-5/8″ exposure creates visual interest and appeal on the roof.

IKO Marathon Plus AR traditional 3-tab shingles carry a 25-year Limited Warranty that includes IKO’s Iron Clad Protection for a period of 5 years.

Algae Resistant Granules

On the surface, we embed special granules designed to help inhibit the growth of blue-green algae which can cause unsightly black streaks and discoloration.

IKO’s exclusive, advanced color blending technology has created some of the most visually appealing color blends on the market. Within the IKO Marathon Plus AR line, you can offer homeowners a wide variety of very attractive options. Whether they want their home to blend in with its natural surroundings or stand out in their neighborhood, they’re sure to find the right color to make a personal statement.

The color you order is the one you’ll get

This color-blending process has also virtually eliminated the common pain of mismatched color lots for you. The color you order is the one you’ll get, batch after batch and time after time.
