Concrete roof tiles
Getting stronger over time
CONCRETE ROOF TILES
Concrete tiles are made from sand, water, cement and pigments, and are not fired like clay tiles, but cured at temperatures of approximately 60 degrees Celsius. The curing process makes them sturdy enough to be transported and laid within a few days of manufacture, and they get stronger over time. Some of the very first concrete tiles, produced back in 1844 at a cement factory in Staudach, Germany, are still on roofs today. The energy-efficient production process and long product life cycle mean that concrete tiles have a comparatively low environmental footprint. Braas Monier’s latest innovation is a concrete roof tile with Aerlox technology. It is just as durable as standard roof tiles but up to 40% lighter. Not only roofers benefit from this light weight tile in their daily work. Aerlox is also a great alternative for home owners with a weaker roof construction which is not able to carry the weight of standard concrete tiles.

Our unique Tegalit flat tiles have clean lines and a contemporary, geometrical design. Similar flat tiles are available in other countries, for example Richmond and Mini Stonewold in the UK, Tegal in Italy, Tegalit in Austria, and Innotech in France. In Germany, Tegalit is available in six different colours, including classic red and various shades of grey. Tegalit works with our innovative Protegon surface: Special pigments on its surface make this roof tile reflect 300% more infrared rays then traditional roof tiles. The roof stays cooler and also cools the surrounding air. The bottom of the Protegon tile may be up to 10°C cooler which leads to an improvement of the air in the living space.

The Frankfurter Pfanne, known as the Double Roman in the UK and the Double Romane in France, is a true classic among Braas Monier´s roof tiles. In Germany, the country where it was first produced, it has been widely used for over 60 years, and no other tile has proved as popular. The tiles are available in a wide range of colours and with a choice of several functional surfaces. As well as being aesthetically appealing, the Frankfurter Pfanne - among other Braas Monier roofing tiles - also helps home-owners to comply with regulations on the use of sustainable building materials.
