100-Year Lifespan
Backed by a century-long warranty, these tiles are built to last for generations, resisting fire, wind, and hail.
Color Permanence
The rich colors are fired directly into the clay, ensuring they will never fade, peel, or lose their vibrancy.
Energy Efficiency
The natural thermal resistance of clay and the air pocket beneath the tiles significantly reduce heating and cooling costs.
Low Maintenance
Ludowici tiles require virtually no maintenance, freeing you from the cycle of repairs and replacements.
Architectural Styles & Finishes
From classic profiles to modern aesthetics, Ludowici offers a vast palette to complement any architectural design.
Spanish roof tile, the most popular profile in Ludowici's product line, is prized for its simple, one-piece barrel design which provides a pattern of distinctive ripples across the surface of a roof. Often synonymous with clay roof tile, Spanish roof tile enhances virtually any style of architecture.
