How to choose a durable and long-lasting roofing well?

05 of January '26

The roof is one of the most important elements of a building - its quality affects the life of the house structure and the safety of the residents. It is also of considerable importance for the appearance of the building - so it is worth that the chosen roofing combines durability, functionality and aesthetics. When choosing a roof covering, one should take into account the type of material, its resistance to weather conditions, insulation properties and appearance that will fit in with the architecture of the building. Braas offers comprehensive solutions that meet these requirements, while providing durability and comfort for years to come.

Ceramic and concrete tiles = reliability

Braas ceramic tiles are produced from high-quality clay and fired at very high temperatures. This gives them resistance to harsh weather conditions such as frost, heat or rapid temperature changes. They are also resistant to mechanical damage and non-flammable, which further enhances building safety. Braas concrete tiles are made from dense concrete mass using modern production technologies. They are characterized by exceptional resistance to hail, strong winds and intense rainfall. Concrete tiles are also resistant to repeated freeze-thaw cycles, which is particularly important in climates with changing weather conditions.

The lifespan of concrete tiles is estimated at around 70-80 years, while ceramic tiles are estimated at up to 100 years, making them among the most durable materials on the market.

Extreme protection

Braas tiles are designed for protection in harsh weather conditions. Their weight makes them resistant to strong gusts of wind, and their design allows them to adhere very well to the roof. In the event of damage, individual tiles can be easily replaced without removing the bulk of the roofing. Braas tiles undergo wind tunnel testing, which confirms their high tightness and resistance to heavy rain. The side and bottom locks of the tiles provide additional protection against blowing snow, dust or water under the covering.

Silence even during a downpour

One of the biggest advantages of Braas tiles is their ability to dampen sound. Unlike lightweight roofing, ceramic and concrete tiles do not transmit noise from rain or hail. The weight of the tiles means that they do not succumb to vibrations, which provides acoustic comfort inside the building, especially in the attic. As a result, residents can enjoy silence even during the most intense rainfall.

A roof full of style - a variety of models and colors

Braas roof tiles are a combination of modern technology and exceptional design. The offer is a wide selection of models that will meet the needs of both lovers of classic and modern solutions.

Modernity in a flat form

Flat tiles are an excellent choice for those who appreciate the modern style that has reigned on roofs for years. Among Braas concrete flat tiles, the Teviva Cisar model stands out in particular. It is characterized by a modern shape and a simple line. A fashionable range of colors, including shades of black, graphite, slate and gray, allows the tile to perfectly match the facade and surroundings. Teviva is manufactured using modern Cisar technology, patented by Braas, which provides the tiles with exceptional durability, a smooth surface and intense and deep color saturation.

Tourmaline clay tile also perfectly emphasizes the modern character of the roofing, especially for buildings with a minimalist design. The rich color palette - copper, anthracite, chestnut, gray and black - gives a wide range of possibilities to match the design, location or style of the house. Selected colors are available in three surface finishes: engobed, glazed and Top Line Glaze. The tiles are characterized by excellent technical properties, such as frost resistance and low water absorption, which guarantees many years of product durability and reliability.

Classics in a traditional version

For those wishing to preserve the classic character of the roof, corrugated tiles are the ideal solution. The well-known and cherished shape of a regular wave on roofs continues to be popular. This effect can be achieved, for example, with Baltic concrete tile. Its asymmetrical wave gives the roof not only elegance, but also a universal, timeless look. Baltic is manufactured using Cisar technology, which ensures durability and aesthetics.

Among concrete corrugated roof tiles, it is also worth mentioning the bestselling model of Celtic tile. This tile perfectly matches the classic style of houses, providing them with elegance and a traditional look. Its harmonious regular wave shape gives roofs an elegant look, creating a timeless design. Celtic has been one of the most popular tile models for years.

The Rubin 9V tile is an example of a ceramic Dutch flat tile that fits perfectly into the aesthetics of traditional architecture, adding a classic, elegant touch to the roof. The choice of copper and chestnut shades allows to emphasize the unique atmosphere of traditional roofs. Selected colors are available in two finishes: engobed and glazed. The Rubin 9V tile is also distinguished by technical advantages, such as its large format, ease of installation and deep top and side locking, which facilitates the drainage of rainwater, ensuring the tightness and durability of the roofing.

Thermal comfort starts with the tile

Also noteworthy are Braas TermoComfort concrete tiles - a modern solution that combines classic aesthetics with innovative technology to reduce roof heating on hot days. The special coating used in them with IR radiation blockers reflects a significant part of the heat energy, instead of absorbing it. It is infrared radiation that accounts for up to 45-55% of the total solar energy reaching the roof.

TermoComfort tiles effectively reduce the heating of the roofing in summer, by up to 27°C*. On hot days, they ensure a lower temperature in the attic - by up to 5.8 °C*.

At the same time, TermoComfort tiles retain all the valued features of Braas concrete tiles: they are highly frost-resistant and resistant to harsh weather conditions such as storms, gusty winds and hail. They provide excellent sound insulation. As a result, they combine a beautiful, classic look with modern functionality.

Braas concrete roof tiles with the innovative TermoComfort coating are available in three carefully designed models: Teviva TermoComfort, Baltic TermoComfort and Celtic TermoComfort.
