The *Planum 2 Duo Concrete Flat Tile

Here is the Planum Concrete 2 or 'Duo' as we like to call it, technically it is state of the art, it has the same advanced technical properties of the original Planum Concrete tile with ultra smooth flat finish and clean ‘pore-free’ edges to make the finished roof look superb. Where the 'Duo' differs to the Planum Concrete is with the central groove which gives the appearance of a smaller tile on the overall perspective of the finished roof but still retains the Planum Concrete tile technical benefits and cost efficiencies of this large format tile. With a covering capacity of under 9.8 tiles per square metre it makes the Planum Concrete 2 flat tile the perfect choice for a very economical and attractive roof. The Planum Concrete tiles work extremely well in both modern and traditional architecture and are available in six different colours together with a wide range of fittings.
