Tile's Evolution

The solid ALMA tile is manufactured according to the highest international quality standards and is the result of long-term research and testing. Its production is carried out in a state-of-the-art industrial unit in Thessaloniki, which utilizes the know-how of specialized foreign companies.

The raw material used is quartz sand, a 100% natural product, which comes from the sand mines of the Axios River. During the production process, the tiles are dried in fully controlled conditions of temperature and humidity, resulting in a perfectly symmetrical final product with excellent texture, great strength and properties that make it "all-weather tile"!

The advanced coloring of the tile is triple-layered and provides the tile with a self-cleaning effect. It creates a protective film that retains dust and micro-particles, which are removed by rainwater, preventing the growth of micro-organisms and mould over time.

The solid tile ALMA, in combination with a full range of special pieces, provides the possibility of constructing tile roofs with unlimited lifetime, high aesthetics, resistance to extreme weather conditions, without the need for maintenance, while ensuring a healthy environment inside the building.

Comparative advantages

The tiles of the Maliouris Group represent the evolution of technology by bringing together a number of unique advantages: Flawless application, absolute tightness, uniformity and symmetry, but also excellent resistance to extreme weather conditions. In addition, it is an environmentally friendly product with a wide range of ecological colours.
Production
ALMA ROOF TILE
They are produced and dried in a mold,
without baking, ensuring absolute uniformity and symmetry.
COMMON ROOF TILE
They use soil as a raw material, which exhibits significant fluctuations in its quality, resulting in the tiles exhibiting deviations in their dimensions during the drying and firing stage.
Application
ALMA ROOF TILE
Perfect fit for any type of roof.
Lighter on the roof by 12-14 kg/ m².
COMMON ROOF TILE
Problems are often observed during their placement due to deviations in framing.
Water
ALMA ROOF TILE
Zero moisture absorption
and absolute tightness.
COMMON ROOF TILE
The deviation observed during the drying and baking stage may create capillary cracks, which are not visually apparent and, over time, favor the inflow of water and the appearance of moisture.
Ice
ALMA ROOF TILE
Great resistance to extreme temperatures and weather phenomena (frost, hail, strong winds, etc.).
COMMON ROOF TILE
Low resistance to extreme temperatures, especially low ones (frost), resulting in cracks due to contraction and expansion, requiring partial or total replacement of the roof.

Homogeneity
ALMA ROOF TILE
The consistent quality of the raw material ensures absolute homogeneity of shades in different production batches.
COMMON ROOF TILE
The different qualities of the soil contribute to the creation of deviations and consequently to the inhomogeneity of the same shades in different production batches.
Colorings
ALMA ROOF TILE
Wide variety of ecological colors. Possibility to choose infinite color combinations.
COMMON ROOF TILE
Limited range of colors.
ENVIRONMENT
ALMA ROOF TILE
Ecological paints that are reflective to ultraviolet rays, ensuring a constant temperature inside the roof and consequently a healthy environment inside the building.
COMMON ROOF TILE
Due to their sensitivity to moisture absorption, they favor the creation of microorganisms (fungi) within a short period of time after their installation.

Colorings

ALMA ROOF TILE offers its customers the opportunity to choose, from a wide range of ecological colours, those shades that meet even the highest architectural expectations!
The solid ALMA Roof Tile exceeds all the requirements of European specifications (CE) for water permeability, mechanical resistance to bending, resistance to extreme temperatures and heat capacity.
