Malleable substances can be hammered into a thin sheet. This is a characteristic of all metals in the solid phase. In contrast nonmetals are brittle in the solid phase. If you take a piece of sulfur and whack it with a hammer a few times you will turn it into sulfur powder not a thin sheet of sulfur.

Is malleable a metal non-metal or metalloid?

A metal is malleable because aluminium, for example, can be compressed to a thin sheet and copper can be stretched to form a wire. On the other hand, a nonmetal isn't malleable. For example, carbon is extremely solid (it is a component of diamond). A metalloid, though, may be malleable or not depending on it's characteristics. Tin is a malleable substance (at some point) but silicon isn't... it's a rock!
