COLOUR NEVER FADES
TANK WATER SAFE
Terracotta roof tiles will never fade. Even after years on your roof with the sun beating down and the wind and rain battering away, Terracotta tiles will retain their colour.
The water that runs off your Terracotta roof into rainwater tanks is clean and safe. Terracotta tiles are made from naturally occurring clay with no added chemicals or dangerous materials.
WILL NOT RUST, WARP OR CORRODE
PROVIDES THERMAL INSULATION
Not only will the colour never fade, but Terracotta tiles will never rust, warp or corrode, a problem that can occur with other roofing materials.
The Thermal Mass of Terracotta roof tiles helps keep you comfortable in your home all year around by helping smooth out temperature fluctuations. This can help save money and the environment through energy savings.
SALT SAFE
PROVIDES ACOUSTIC INSULATION
Terracotta roof tiles are ideal for coastal locations that endure the wind, spray and salt of the ocean. Because they are salt safe they will not corrode over time.
Terracotta roof tiles also assist in keeping unwanted noise out. Their advanced insulation properties makes them ideal for areas of high density living.
IMPERVIOUS TO FROST AND ICE
INCREASED HOME RESALE VALUE
Terracotta roof tiles are ideal for those living in colder climates. They are impervious to the effects of frost and ice, and will never crack or warp, no matter how cold it gets outside.
Terracotta roof tiles are simply a better investment decision. Because of their inherent, long-lasting quality features, Terracotta roof tiles add to the value of any home.

THE PERFORMANCE OF TERRACOTTA TILES IS GUARANTEED FOR 50 YEARS. However, as a purchaser of Terracotta tiles and accessories, it is important to understand the designed performance of them. Terracotta tiles are created by pressing, glazing and firing of natural clay at over 1,090 degrees Celsius. As each tile is individual to the clay and glaze used, inherently there will be different shades of colour throughout the manufacturing process. The most attractive roofs are those that ensure a consistent blending of these shades throughout the roof. Touch points and small firing blemishes are inherent to varying degrees, according to the plant or manufacture. These will not detract from weatherproofing performance of the tile and should not be seen as a product fault.
HEALTH AND SAFETY Terracotta roof tiles contain crystalline silica. Repeated inhalation of dust from dry cutting tiles may cause lung scarring (Silicosis) or cancer. Avoid breathing the dust. Where power tools are used wear an approved dust mask (respirator). Refer to material safety data sheets (MSDSs) or phone 0800 666 437 for further information.
COLOUR MATCHING Colours have been reproduced as faithfully as possible. However the actual colours may differ to varying degrees from the samples shown here. We urge all customers to view these tiles on display before making a decision. Always check the delivered product before installation.
