The company is committed to being as environmentally friendly as possible, using sustainable manufacturing wherever possible.

Marley Eternit supplies the roofing industry with 24 colours of plain clay tiles. Research shows that the colour of tiles is paramount when they are chosen by architects and builders; it is preferable to have colours that compliment those of nearby buildings and of a building’s brickwork. Over recent years, investment in the manufacturing process has enabled the manufacture of clay tiles to become more efficient. This means that clay tiles are more affordable and have potential to be used for a wider range of applications – from schools and hospitals to town and country housing.

The new colour, Vintage Brown, is part of Marley Eternit’s Acme Single Camber Clay Plain Tile range. Other colours in this range include Century, Red Smooth and Sand-faced, Farmhouse Brown Sand-faced, Heather Sand-faced and Grey Sand-faced. These tiles provide the warmth and character associated with traditional clay, whilst utilising advanced manufacturing techniques. They are made from high quality Etruria Marl to ensure strength and durability, and can be used with a variety of fittings, enabling creative design when needed. Marley Eternit’s range of clay plain tiles can achieve an A or A+ rating in the Building Establishment’s ‘Green Guide to Specification’, showing a very low environmental impact.

The Vintage Brown tiles, as part of a growing range of roofing tile colours, show that traditional looks can be achieved affordably.
