Since stone coated metal roof tiles have been promoted in China in recent years, many people who first heard about this new popular roof tile are concerned about all aspects of the situation, especially its characteristics and properties. How different is it from the previous traditional tiles, which one is stronger or weaker?
Now, let's make a comparison of the advantages and disadvantages of colored stone metal tiles and traditional tiles represented by cement tiles and clay tiles, and more than 10 attributes, let everyone see at a glance who is the future of the roof tile market leader!
Stone coated metal roof tiles: High-temperature porcelain-baked colored sand is used, which has the look and feel of stone and is natural and beautiful. Professional adhesive, double-layer spraying process, makes the colored sand particles and steel plate bonded densely and firmly.
Traditional roof tiles: Cement texture, lack of natural beauty. The glaze surface easily faded and cracked, especially in areas with large temperature differences.
Stone coated metal roof tiles: It adopts galvanized steel plate, which has excellent weather resistance, penetration resistance, impact resistance, etc, and the service life can reach 30-50 years.
Traditional roof tiles: The durability is good, and the average service life is 30 years.
Stone coated metal roof tiles: The inherent strength, self-locking design, and horizontal nailing method can make the entire roof resist external impact, avoid displacement and slipping during earthquakes, and even can be fixed vertically on buildings.
Traditional roof tiles: The head-heavy structure is paired with a lightweight structure that tends to slide and fall off during earthquakes.
Stone coated metal roof tiles: Use the shear design to achieve windproof requirements, in line with the wind resistance uncovered on 12 levels.
Traditional roof tiles: When the roof is hit by strong winds, the lifting force of the wind acts vertically on the roof, and the tiles and mounting nails are easily uprooted.
Stone coated metal roof tiles: The exquisite tile design and fastening method ensure that the rainwater will not seep in with the wind pressure when the roof slope is between 15 degrees and 90 degrees. When hit by hail, it will not crack and cause water leakage.
Traditional roof tiles: The tile unit area is small and the connection gap is relatively large (the lap gap per unit area is more than twice that of the AHI roofing system).
Stone coated metal roof tiles: It is a non-combustible material. After burning for 10 minutes at a high temperature of 760 degrees Celsius, the stone coated metal roof tiles will not be deformed and the colored sand will not fall off.
Traditional roof tiles: Generally, the fire resistance is poor and it is easy to crack.
Stone coated metal roof tiles: Thermal conductivity 0.047-0.07W/(dam·K) for insulation material or thermal insulation material.
Traditional roof tiles: The sound absorption coefficient is 0.53~0.63 (in the range of 0~1, 0 represents total reflection, 1 represents total absorption).
Stone coated metal roof tiles: The weight per square meter is about 6kg, which is relatively light. The transportation is convenient and the installation cost is low.
Traditional roof tiles: The weight per square meter is about 50kg, which is generally heavy and inconvenient for long-distance transportation. Especially not suitable for prefabricated buildings.
Stone coated metal roof tiles: Fired with basalt grit, it is not easy to fade.
Traditional roof tiles: Use organic or inorganic pigments, easy to fade.
Stone coated metal roof tiles: The shape is flexible and diverse, such as arc, circle, spire, etc. It is especially suitable for shapes with large slopes and is easy to construct.
Traditional roof tiles: The shape is limited, and it is not suitable for roofs with large slopes.
Stone coated metal roof tiles: The steel can be recycled, and the transportation energy consumption is low; the installation requires less wood, which saves wood resources; it does not contain harmful substances and meets the green building standards.
Traditional roof tiles: Cannot be recycled.
Stone coated metal roof tiles: The handling process will not cause any damage due to external force. The steel substrate can be cut or bent, and physical installation is not easy to cause loss. It is easy to match with various edge designs and maintain the integrity and originality of the roof design style.
Traditional roof tiles: The handling process is prone to damage due to external forces. The installation process exists in different degrees of loss according to the skills of different levels of installers. The variability of the finishing details is low, the loss is high, and most of them are filled with cement mortar, which is easy to cause aging and leakage affecting the appearance.
The above is a comparison of the properties of stone coated roof tiles and traditional roof tiles that Sangobuild has inventoried for everyone. It is obvious that stone coated roof tiles are superior in terms of aesthetics, durability, waterproofing, and environmental protection. After all, everything should be updated and iterated, let alone the decorative materials used for household roofs, which need to combine practicality and aesthetics in order to win market popularity and reputation.
Perhaps you cannot feel the advantages of colored stone metal tiles just from the text. If you are planning to cover roof or has a batch of projects that require roof tiles, you can find samples of stone coated roof tiles from Sangobuild. Our factory has a daily production capacity of up to 10000 square meters. Please feel free to contact us!
