Lothian - peak performance for contractors
With the Lothian range from Russell Roof Tiles contractors can use of fewer tiles and benefit from reduced installation time and reduced labour cost.
The company takes care to ensure that the most suitable products are sourced for every step of the construction process - and that includes the roof.
Avonside Roofing of Mansfield Woodhouse installed a total of 20,000 Lothian tiles in Slate Grey for a clean, modern appearance with a touch of continental style.
The Lothian is part of Russell Roof Tiles' Imperial Product range and offers specifiers, developers and contractors the advantages of a thin leading edge tile with the style of a plain rounded edge European design.
Increased levels of environmental awareness also put Lothian at the top of the list for Specifiers and Contractors alike.
In comparison to a standard interlocking tile, Lothian requires 10% less raw material and can help to achieve a significant reduction in on-site waste as only one tile is used - no special tiles are needed for verges, eaves or ridges.
A simulated centre joint gives the impression of 2 smaller European style plain tiles whilst covering a large area whilst giving the impression of two smaller plain tiles.
Not only does this design result in the use of less tiles and quicker installation, there is consequently a reduction in supply chain outlay due to the use of fewer pallets.
In addition, Lothian is backed by the provision of Russell's high-speed delivery service, which offers delivery to site in around 4-5 days.
The Imperial Range is manufactured in accordance with the requirements of British Standards EN 490:1994 and EN 491:1994 and is guaranteed for a period of sixty years from the date of supply (subject to the normal terms of guarantee).
Russell Roof Tiles manufacture a wide range of high quality concrete tiles, ridge tiles and systems in a choice of colours and finishes to meet the demands of most applications.
