Story of Tiles
There is concrete proof no pun intended
that tiles and tile roofs have been an integral part
of society’s housing habits since 10,000 B.C. in
China. If history is to be believed, there is evidence
to support the use of clay in all the civilized ancient
cultures from the Egyptians to the Greeks to the Romans.
Since that time, cultures around the world have used
tile to ensure that their roofs are attractive as well
as durable, fireproof, and weather resistant. The tile
roofs and tiles have been around for a long time and
are here to stay to beautify your homes, resorts and
other architectural wonders.
