Planum tiles,

The flat tile behind the world's most ambitious modern roofs

Flat / Interlocking flat

There's a reason Planum tiles are preferred on high-end design projects worldwide: when a contemporary roofline demands absolute precision, very few tiles can deliver. Large format, razor clean lines and a flatness so exact it makes minimalist design look effortless. This is the profile architects specify so that their roof can live up to the rest of the project.

Manufactured by La Escandella and fired individually at high temperature on its own "H" support, each Planum tile reaches a definition, resistance and low water absorption that conventional firing simply can't match. Its interlocking system seals the surface watertight, and the large format keeps the finished plane continuous, composed and clean.

The flat profile contemporary architecture specifies when the roof is part of the design, not an afterthought.

FAQs

What is a Spanish S tile?

The Spanish S is a single-piece clay roof tile shaped in an S curve that creates the classic, layered Spanish roofline. It delivers the traditional Mediterranean look in one tile, keeping installation simple, while preserving the true character of a Spanish clay roof.

Both create a Spanish, Mediterranean look with their own distinct character. The Mission Barrel is a deeper and rounded barrel profile with a pronounced shadow line, while the Spanish S has a flowing S curve offering a broader color range. The look you want defines the right one.

Since it's a single-piece profile, it cuts down the piece count and the work needed to achieve a full Spanish look, which is one of the main reasons roofers and project owners prefer it.

The Spanish S carries Miami-Dade County approval and meets Florida Building Code requirements. The NOA is available for direct download on this page.

Pre-blends are exclusive color combinations mixed across multiple tones instead of a single flat color. They give roofs more depth and natural movement and because the Spanish S offers pre-blends you can't get elsewhere, they're a way to land a custom-looking palette at a reasonable cost.
