Natural roofs in the colors of our regions

 

The roof is a key element in a building's thermal performance. It's an extremely cost-effective investment for sustainably enhancing a property's value. Architects today favor natural materials and are banking on a sure bet: terracotta.

Erlus, a manufacturer of clay tiles, offers a tile adapted to the climate and typical architectural style for each region.

In the North and East, a great diversity of roofs

Erlus flat tiles with a straight cut can enhance roofs in the Burgundy, Centre, Île-de-France, and Picardy regions in an economical format. The Erlus flat tile, with a scale, pointed, or straight cut, is designed for roofs with timeless charm. With its dimensions of 18 x 38 cm, this tile is available in ten colors. It offers great creativity for roof design.

Erlus Reform SL for versatile use

The Erlus Reform SL tile is attractive due to its sleek geometry, variable gauge, and attractive size (12,5 tiles per m²). This tile fits into all traditional roofs, but also enhances the most contemporary architecture. The specific technicality of the interlocking gives it optimal watertightness when installed with straight joints. With a nominal slope of 25°, it is particularly well-suited to the rainy climates of the Normandy and Ile-de-France regions.

Erlus E 58 SL - For low-pitched roofs

The universal and versatile E 58 SL tile is well-suited to low-slope roofs from 10 degrees in the Hauts-de-France and Grand Est regions. This tile is quick and easy to install and offers an advantageous format: only 11,5 pieces cover 1 m². With its variable 3 cm exposure, this tile replaces existing old tiles without changing the lathing or altering the roof width. The E 58 SL is available in nine colors.

Erlus FORMA: an elegant, ergonomic and functional tile

Quick and easy to install, the Erlus Forma tile, particularly popular in the Rhône-Alpes region, adapts to all rafter lengths and is suitable for both large and small roofs. The Forma tile has many advantages. Lightweight, with only ten tiles per m², its gentle double wave is ideal for hips on hip roofs.

Canal tiles for the Mediterranean climate

The tradition of Mediterranean roofing reflects the ancestral techniques of clay working and firing. At the time, no two tiles were identical. Erlus reproduces this natural effect with high-quality clays and cutting-edge manufacturing techniques. With its Mediterranean tiles, Erlus demonstrates that responsible and ecological construction can be combined with elegant design. For the regions of Southern France, Erlus offers traditional canal tiles, as well as Monaco mechanical Roman tiles, in natural, classic, umbra, and rosso red colors.


Erlus tiles are available from building materials stores.
