I. Introduction of Classic Profile Stone-Coated Metal Roof Tile
Classic profile stone-coated metal roof tiles combine the traditional curved roof-tile look with the durability and long service life of metal roofing. Using Al-Zn coated steel as the base and natural stone chips on the surface, this classic design creates a strong, elegant roof appearance that fits villas, residential houses, churches, schools and commercial buildings.
The classic wave profile provides a three-dimensional effect and clear shadow lines on the roof, improving curb appeal while delivering reliable protection against wind, rain, snow and UV exposure.

III. Structure of Classic Tiles Stone-Coated Steel Roofing Tiles
The classic stone-coated steel roof tile is a multi-layer roofing material:
• Al-Zn coated steel sheet as the core for strength and corrosion resistance
• Acrylic basecoat and adhesive layer
• Natural stone chips for texture, colour and noise reduction
• Transparent overglaze for additional UV and colour protection

VII. Advantages of Classic Tiles Stone-Coated Roof Tile
(1) Fireproof: Class A fire-resistant materials help prevent flame spread in case of fire, providing safer protection for buildings.
(2) Corrosion resistance: Al-Zn coated steel has excellent anti-corrosion performance. When zinc is consumed, aluminum forms a dense oxide layer that protects the steel core and prolongs service life.
(3) Cost-effective installation: In many projects, classic tiles can be installed over existing roofing, reducing demolition, waste handling and labour costs.
(4) Heavy snow performance: The curved profile and stone-coated surface help prevent heavy snow build-up and allow snow to slide off more easily in winter.
(5) Earthquake friendly: Lightweight roofing system reduces the risk of falling tiles compared with heavy concrete or clay roofs during earthquakes.
(6) Noise reduction: Stone chips absorb rain impact sound and help reduce noise inside the building. The metal tiles can be recycled, lowering environmental impact.
(7) Lightweight: The 55% Al-Zn coating provides a larger coverage area at the same coating weight compared with traditional galvanizing, resulting in a lighter roof and reduced structural load.
(8) Wind resistance: When properly installed with the recommended fixing system, stone-coated metal roof tiles perform safely in strong winds, storms and coastal climates.
(9) Heat resistance: Aluminum-zinc alloy has good heat resistance and can withstand high temperatures, making it suitable for hot climates and strong sunlight.
(10) Good heat reflectivity: Al-Zn coated steel has high thermal reflectance, and together with the stone-coated surface, it helps reduce heat transfer into the building and slow down temperature rise in summer.
VIII. Packing and Shipment for Stone-Coated Steel Roof Tiles
Classic tiles are packed on strong wooden or iron pallets with plastic film and strapping, suitable for container shipping. Standard export packing helps minimize damage during loading, transport and unloading at the project site.
