2024: ERLUS Karat RS - Anthrazit

Stands for good design: timeless and modern for almost 50 years.

After almost 50 years, it’s safe to say that the ERLUS Karat is a design classic, as it is still as up-to-date as ever. It is a perfect complement to modern architecture, and its techology is unique. With a standard roof pitch of 16° (min. roof pitch 7°), it is ideally suited to flatter roofs owing to its sophisticated technical design, which also makes the tile particularly raintight: Triple interlocking head joint, double interlocking side joint and a 4-tile corner with protected male lock.

Quantity required per m²: aprox. 14.7 Pieces
Minimum roof pitch: 7 °
Regular roof pitch: 16 °
