Performance
Weather
Tegola tiles are resistant to attack by hostile chemicals in the atmosphere and to high wind speeds, as leading edges are bonded down.
Mechanics
The minimum resistance to longitudinal load is 1000N, to transverse load 840N, and to perforation 3220N.
Fire
Tegola tiles have the top EXT.S.AA and P60 fire ratings.
Chemical
Tegola tiles are resistant to atmospheric corrosion and substances leaching from building materials.
Biological
Tegola tiles are resistant to attack by lichens and moss.
Pollution
Tegola tiles are suitable for use in marine, industrial, urban and rural atmospheres.
Heat
Tegola tiles have been used in very hot climates and tests show that there is no granule slippage after 6 hours in the vertical position at 80ºC.
Compatibility
Tegola tiles are compatible with other building materials.
Durability
Tegola tiles have a 10 year transferable warranty. Due to their high strength, thick granule protection and pre-impregnated construction their expected life is 30 years. |
