Britmet's lightweight and best-selling Plaintile tile-effect solution is the world's only true broken-bond roofing system, offering an economic approach to tiling and guaranteed speedy installation. This innovative design can be fixed to roof pitches as low as 15 degrees and those of up to 90 degrees, making it suitable for vertical cladding. Storm resistant and so easy to handle, Plaintile roofing panels provide simple, traditional finishes and hard-wearing cladding for virtually any application and any roof style where a pristine plaintile finish is required. Why choose Britmet Plaintile? The entire economic Plaintile range is crafted here in the UK from high-grade aluzinc steel, then coated with a durable finish in a range of colours to suit the property you're working on. The base coat is formed with a tough acrylic resin, stone granules are applied on top and then a clear acrylic overglaze seals the colour in for lasting depth. Fully BBA approved, Britmet Plaintile weighs just one seventh the weight of traditional tiles (at 8kg per square metre), meaning less structural support is needed in the roof's design which, in turn, cuts down your project’s timescale plus material and labour costs. It’s fully dry fix for building regulation compliance, and has an AA fire rating that’s equal to traditional slates and tiles. With an equivalent width of seven traditional tiles and five Plaintiles per square metre, using Britmet’s Plaintile equals a much faster installation time. And with a 40-year warranty against weather damage (even on fully vertical applications), you can be sure that your installation is built to stand up against even the harshest conditions. For best results, we recommend installing your Britmet Plaintile roof panels with the full range of corresponding Britmet ancillary items which include flashing, mono ridges, vent tiles and more, all in corresponding colours for a uniform finish.
