Golden Clay tiles send sparks flying Superior Strength

Leaks start with a crack. To minimise it, you need a strong tile. GCI tiles have the the strength to create sparks without chipping or cracking. This is one demonstration you need to see to believe.

GCI tiles can withstand the weight of an elephant


Each GCI tile weighs slightly more than 3 kgs but within this tightly packed tile lays the strength of a behemoth. GCI tiles have been tested to withstand over 400 kgs. Having gone through the most vigorous testing, these tiles have complied with and even surpasses the highest international standards including the French, German, USA, British, Norwegian and Singaporean quality standards.


Beauty

Successful builders and developers know that a roof does more than just "cover" a house - it adds beauty and character to it. Therefore, choosing the right roof - with GCI clay roofing tiles - is one of the smartest investments you can make in selling a house.

Every GCI tile's component materials are stringently chosen and fired at 1060°C for 24 hours to attain superb clay body and surface finishing. As a result, GCI tiles are smooth on the outside and impeccably hard on the inside. This smooth finish is not merely for aesthetical purposes. It is functional as it helps resist dirt and fungus growth.

Interlocking System

Double Interlocking SystemThe beauty of the GCI Tiles is more than skin deep. The innovative Double Interlocking System prevents leakage and enhances security.

We designed the tiles into an "S" shape that will effectively drain even our worst tropical storms and finally, we gave it a Double Interlocking System to keep the water out. The Double Interlocking System's primary function is to keep water out by interlocking itself to the adjacent tile with 2 layers of lock. Because the tile interlocks with one another, it enchances security. It is almost impossible to break in from the roof by removing tiles without breaking them.

GCI are already the "crowning glory" of numerous showcase homes and communities all over Malaysia. Just have a look at the various property development projects that used GCI roofing system. Customers of GCI Tiles can now be found throughout countries in Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Oceania and Europe.

Friends of The Earth

Environmental friendly, recycle and green are words that GCI keeps very close to the heart. The core material used by GCI is clay. One cannot be more environmentally friendly than that. The irony is: GCI clay roofing tiles basiclly uses Nature's best material to protect human beings against Nature's worst elements; the sun, the rain and the wind.

Thermal Comfort

By nature, clay is a bad conductor of heat, making it an ideal material for the roof. Heat insulation and thermal comfort is a major issue in building homes in tropical countries. Using GCI clay roofing tiles will not only save money from energy cost but will also regulate internal temperature.

In recent studies by University Putra Malaysia, Mr. Mohd Peter Davis and Madam Nor Azian Nordin found that when using GCI clay roofing tiles, the internal temperature of a house is cooler, thus contributing positively to the thermal comfort of the occupants in the building. In fact, their results revealed an astonishing 2° - 3°C cooler in houses that are using GCI clay roofing tile compared to those using concrete tiles.
