GAF: Over 139 Years of Roofing Innovation and Excellence
GAF began in 1886 as the Standard Paint Company in New Jersey with just 18 employees. It introduced the first ready-to-lay asphalt roll roofing in 1892 and later became The RUBEROID Co. In 1967, after merging with General Aniline & Film, it adopted the GAF name and launched its iconic Timberline shingles. Today, GAF is North America’s largest roofing manufacturer with over 30 plants and thousands of employees focused solely on quality roofing.
GAF leads with advanced technology like LayerLock, which creates the industry’s widest nailing area for faster, stronger installation and better wind resistance. Its Timberline Solar system features the world’s first nailable solar shingle that installs like regular roofing while generating energy. Additional innovations include algae-resistant shingles, cool-roof granules, and sustainable recycling processes that reduce landfill waste.
GAF has earned the Good Housekeeping Seal and 2022/2025 Home Renovation Awards for Timberline Solar and HDZ RS shingles. It repeatedly wins the Women’s Choice Award, with 9 out of 10 women recommending the brand for trust and quality. Builders praise GAF through NAHB Best of IBS Awards, especially for Timberline Solar as the most innovative construction tool.
