Thanks to the perfectly coordinated system and their low weight, the rhomboid tiles can be used problem-free on new roofs and renovations. They make for a traditionally timeless appearance, but can also be used in combination with the façade for a modern architectural style. The 0.7 mm thick coil-coated aluminium and the proven flat lock technology of the PREFA roof systems ensure maximum durability and extreme weather resistance.

Notes
- The RAL values stated are merely approximate values (~), some of which may differ vastly from the original PREFA colour and, under certain circumstances, may not reflect the subjective perception of the colour.
- Above all for colour quality P.10, it is almost impossible to define values due to the surface structure. In addition, the PREFA Siding colours P.10 stone grey, P.10 sand brown, P.10 patina green, natural oak, patina grey, walnut and grey oak are based on natural colours made up of several different shades.
- Coils and metal sheets plain aluminium: The guarantee does not cover surface appearance alterations caused by processing and environmental influences. Follow the instructions.
- Metallic colours may vary in shade.

PREFA rhomboid roof tiles 29 × 29 in P.10 anthracite
This rural building was roofed with the light PREFA 29 × 29 rhomboid roof tiles in P.10 anthracite during roof renovations. The dormers of the house were given unique details. Small PREFA rhomboid roof tiles in two different colours were used for their design.

The heritage-listed Maienluft Castle in Wasungen, Germany, was roofed with the lightweight PREFA rhomboid roof tiles 29 × 29 and Prefalz during renovation. PREFA’s rhomboid tiles are very similar in appearance to the original slate roofing.
Simony house in Vienna with PREFA rhomboid roof and façade tiles 29 × 29 in the colour light grey – Treberspurg & Partner Architekten
The roof of the Simony House in Vienna (BOKU – University of Natural Resources and Applied Life Sciences, Vienna) was re-roofed in 2014 with the light and storm-proof roof tiles 29 × 29 in the colour P.10 light grey.
Large-size scaly appearance: You might also like:
The slightly larger rhomboid roof tile 44 × 44 cm focuses on a more reduced design and completely does without the beading embossing. Furthermore, it can be installed from a roof pitch of 12°, and it can be installed quickly without clips, i.e. directly fastened.
Do you have questions about the rhomboid roof tile 29 × 29?
PREFA roof tiles, roof shingles, rhomboid roof tiles and FX.12 roof panels are an excellent choice for covering over older existing roofs thanks to their light weight. They can be quickly mounted to the existing roofing material, such as bitumen shingles or bituminous sheeting. This type of covering requires an intact sub-structure, correct roof pitch and other basic structural requirements!

Roof structure when using roof rhomboid tiles 29 × 29
PREFA aluminium roofs ideally have a ventilated build up, where the roof cover and thermal insulation is separated by a ventilated gap. This means any occasional condensation can be wicked away again.
For the most part, the roof is ventilated, as can be seen in the first picture. However, the whole attic space can also be ventilated (second picture).
