Romanova S Series

This 260*380mm Romanesque tile deeply restores the romantic and classic style of Romanesque tiles originated from the Renaissance. With "lightweight design, high adaptability and elegant decorative effect" as its core highlights, it perfectly meets the pursuit of French residences for the integration of order, regularity and nature. The following comprehensively analyzes its core advantages from four dimensions in combination with specific product parameters, style characteristics and industry testing standards. All discussions are supported by measured data to ensure authenticity and credibility.

Lightweight and precise proportioning, balancing stability and efficiency

The product structure design centers around the three core elements of "lightweight, high sealing, and easy construction", with parameter ratios fully adapted to the construction requirements of classical architecture. In terms of basic dimensions, the main specification of 260*380mm, combined with the actual tiling area of 220*310mm, forms a scientific "effective coverage ratio" - the actual tiling area accounts for 70.8%. Although it is lower than the large-sized Romanesque tiles, with a square usage of 14 pieces per square meter, it can form a densely overlapped sealed structure. The density of roof gaps reaches 14 per square meter, which is 35% higher than that of large-sized Romanesque tiles over 300mm. Multiple lapping effectively blocks the path of rainwater infiltration. Each piece weighs only 2.5kg, which is 60% lighter than the conventional Romanesque tiles (4-5kg per piece). The total load per square meter of the roof is only 35kg, far lower than the load-bearing standard of ≥2.5kN/㎡ (about 250kg/㎡) for conventional concrete roofs. It is even suitable for low-load-bearing roofs such as steel structures and wooden structures, without the need for additional reinforcement. The construction cost is reduced by 20%.

The convenience of construction is particularly prominent. The lightweight design of 2.5kg enables a single person to pave an average daily area of 12-15 square meters, increasing the construction efficiency by 80% compared to conventional heavy-duty Roman tiles. It is especially suitable for projects with high requirements for roof construction accuracy, such as French-style residences. From the perspective of structural logic, the ratio of 260mm width to 380mm length conforms to the design principle of "small volume and many details" in classical architecture, which is convenient for tiling on complex structures such as curved roofs and irregular eaves, and the tiling error tolerance rate is increased by 40%. The dense lap joint method, combined with the classic concave-convex interlocking structure of Roman tiles (defaulting to the core lap joint process of the category), makes the connection of the tile body more stable. After testing, in the environment of a typhoon of level 14 (wind speed ≥40m/s), the tile detachment rate is 0, and the structural stability meets the wind resistance requirements of most regions.

Lightweight without sacrificing durability, with excellent weather resistance in all scenarios

Relying on high-quality raw materials and precise craftsmanship, the product still maintains outstanding practical performance despite its lightweight design. In terms of durability, although each piece weighs only 2.5kg, after being processed by a 4,000-ton high-pressure vacuum forming process, the density of the tile body is ≥1.6g/cm³, the flexural strength is ≥28MPa (far exceeding the requirement of ≥20MPa in the national "Roof Engineering Technical Code"), the Mohs hardness reaches level 5, and it can withstand an instantaneous pressure of 1.0 ton /㎡. With a service life of over 40 years, it is highly consistent with the attribute of "long-term value preservation" of French residences.

It has comprehensive weather resistance and can withstand extreme temperature differences ranging from -30℃ to 70℃. After 40 freeze-thaw cycles (8 hours of freezing at -30℃ and 4 hours of high-temperature curing at 70℃), there are no cracks, no glaze peeling, and no dimensional deformation. It is suitable for most climate regions such as North China, East China, and Southwest China. The waterproof performance is guaranteed by the dual mechanism of "dense lap joint + dense glaze surface". The thickness of the glaze layer sintered at high temperature on the surface of the tile body is ≥0.4mm, and the water absorption rate is ≤6%. Combined with a dense laying of 14 pieces per square meter, the roof waterproofing grade reaches level I. The simulated heavy rain test data shows that in an environment with a rainfall of 200mm/h, there is no leakage or water accumulation on the roof. The drainage efficiency reaches 0.9L/ (s · ㎡), meeting the demands of daily rainfall and short-term heavy rain. In addition, the product's fire resistance rating reaches Class A (non-combustible material), effectively reducing the risk of building fires. The glaze layer is added with anti-ultraviolet additives, with an anti-ultraviolet grade of UV-7. After 5000 hours of sun exposure, the color difference ΔE is ≤2.2. It can still maintain color stability even when exposed to strong sunlight for a long time. The smooth glaze surface ensures a dust adhesion rate of no more than 5%, a self-cleaning rate of no less than 88% when exposed to rain, and extremely low maintenance costs in the later stage.

Recreates classic romance and aligns with the core of French aesthetics

The product perfectly interprets the "romantic classic" style positioning of Romanva, and its parameter design and decorative effect are highly consistent with the aesthetic requirements of French residences. The small size of 260*380mm, combined with a dense tiling of 14 pieces per square meter, gives the roof a fine texture, in line with the French architectural design principle of "emphasizing order and regularity". The roof lines are neat and uniform, with a strong sense of unity. The classic rounded arcs and smooth lines of Romanwa are even more lively and dynamic in small-sized designs. The horizontal rhythm and vertical extension formed after tiling not only restore the classical charm of Renaissance architecture but also enhance the solemnity of the building through dense arrangement, achieving a decorative effect that is "grand, elegant yet romantic".

It has extremely strong color compatibility and can achieve 18 classic color series such as red-brown, beige, bluish-gray, and matte black through high-temperature firing of mineral glazes. The glaze gloss is ≥90 gloss units, with high color saturation and rich texture, perfectly matching the coordination requirements between French residences and the natural environment - warm tones such as red-brown and beige are suitable for country-style French residences. Form a natural blend with green plants and soil; Cool tones such as bluish-gray and matte black are suitable for modern French architecture, highlighting a sense of stability and grandeur. In terms of laying methods, it supports various techniques such as parallel tiling, staggered tiling, and beveled tiling: Parallel tiling enhances the sense of order of the building, which is in line with the regular design of French residences. Staggered tiling adds a lively touch and is suitable for a romantic country style. Beveled tiling can create unique geometric patterns, enhance the artistic sense of the building, and become the core carrier of the building's "romantic temperament".
