Product Description and Features

The document presents a roofing tile product designed to combine the traditional aesthetic of bent roof tiles with the ease of installation typical of standard roof tiles. This is achieved by adding a small lateral wing to the common bent roof tile, allowing easy and direct coupling with other elements. A distinctive feature is its irregular surface finish, which mimics the subtle veins and marks of skilled craftsmanship.

Product Variants and Aesthetic Options

The product line includes various color and style options such as "vecchia faenza," "vecchia salento," "rosso naturale," "antica cassino," and the "coppotech" system, which represents an evolution in roofing technology. All products are proudly made in Italy.

Warranty and Certification

IBL spa offers a 20-year warranty on its roofing tiles and bent roof tiles. Activation of the warranty requires presentation of a certificate containing client, product, and sales details, countersigned by both client and company.

All products comply with the European Directive 89/106/EC on construction products and bear the CE mark, ensuring conformity with EU standards.

Performance and Quality Assurance

The roofing tiles undergo rigorous quality control and use selected high-quality raw materials to achieve superior physical and mechanical performance. Notably, the products have passed the freeze-thaw resistance test according to UNI EN 539-2, method E, which requires resistance to 150 freeze-thaw cycles.

IBL’s tiles have been tested up to 300 freeze-thaw cycles without any surface or structural damage, positioning them among the highest quality products in the Italian market and competitive with leading European manufacturers, especially from Germanic and Eastern European countries known for strict building standards.
