Sandtoft Cassius

CassiusDesigned in
collaboration with the UK’s leading contractors and following four years of research and development, Cassius dramatically cuts the cost of a natural roof.

Cassius dramatically cuts the cost of a natural clay roof and so provides a genuinely cost effective alternative to fibre cement products and traditional slate. Fired with a ceramic coating, the tile provides a natural slate colour that is extremely durable and colour permanent. It’s thin leading edge creates an attractive clay roof, while it’s large format size and interlocking design reduces material and installation costs.

  • New Generation interlocking clay tile with easy to lay open gauge
  • Over 50% more cost effective than traditional natural slate
  • Large format design means competitive with concrete thin leading edge products
  • Clean lines and well defined thin leading edge enhances aesthetics
  • Pressed from natural alluvial Humber clay and available in 3 permanent colours
  • No tops or eaves tiles required
  • High performance weatherproof design developed through intensive wind tunnel testing
  • Manufactured to Environment Management Standard ISO 14001
  • A+ rating in the BRE Green Guide to specification

Cassius has been boted the ‘Best Roof Covering’ a the Homebuilding and Renovating Product Excellence Awards 2011.
