Advantages & Disadvantages of Stone Coated Metal Roof Tile

  2. Beautiful appearance  

Appearance is the second major feature of stone coated metal roof tiles, and it is also the unique advantage of this kind of roof tiles. The tile type and color of traditional tiles are relatively single or monotonous, while there are more than 10 kinds of tile types of stone coated metal roof tiles, which are suitable for many building roofs, whether it is a project such as a self-built house or a school scenic spot, it can be well adapted. Secondly, there are nearly 20 colors of stone coated metal roof tiles. Whether it is a low-key rustic style or a sunny fashion style, we can have a good style choice.

  3. Strong weather resistance  

Strong weather resistance is the third major characteristic of colored stone metal tiles. New materials such as asphalt shingles and resin shingles, which were popular a few years ago, are prone to cracking, deformation, and other problems when encountering extreme weather conditions such as high temperature, severe cold, hail, and so on. The colored stone metal tile is made of aluminum zinc plated steel plate, and with a protective coating such as acrylic resin on the surface, it can withstand harsh weather very well.

  4. Long lifespan  

Because of its own material properties, the stone coated metal roof tile is made of aluminum zinc plated steel plate and acrylic resin protective layer, so the material is anti-corrosion, anti-aging, and not fragile, so its service life can also reach more than 50 years.

Finally, let's talk about the drawbacks of stone coated metal roof tiles.

Although stone coated metal roof tiles have many advantages compared to past roof materials, they may not currently be able to meet the large demand in the self-built housing market in terms of price. After all, transitioning from the low cost of traditional tiles to the high cost of new materials now also requires a market popularization and transition cycle. So the price of stone coated metal roof tiles is still difficult for everyone to accept, and their applications are mainly in large-scale engineering projects or villa roofs, flat to sloping areas, scenic schools, etc.

Overall, the advantages of this new type of roofing material, stone coated metal roof tiles, are obvious and there is little need to be picky about material properties. However, the price is indeed a thorn in this type of tile, and if the general public cannot accept it, it naturally cannot be widely popularized. So this new type of tile material has a long way to go before it enters more ordinary people's homes.
