New Rivius is manufactured using bespoke moulds, crafted from the imprints of Welsh slate to ensure that the intricate texture and defined detail of natural slate is reflected in the final clay product. The tile creates previously impossible opportunities for any self-build/social housing projects which would benefit from the look of slate but need a more cost effective product.

Product specification is subject to change and will be updated accordingly. For projects where the rafters are below the minimum recommended roof pitch please contact Sandtoft Technical Services for advice. Rafter length restrictions apply at minimum roof pitch. Clay tiles are subject to small variations in size because of drying and firing shrinkage in the manufacturing process. Before deciding on the batten gauge and linear coverage, each batch of tiles should be inspected to ensure that the correct minimum headlap and sidelap are achieved. Note: Unless otherwise stated, data is based on the tiles laid at minimum headlap. Tile Fixing Sandtoft roof tiles must be laid and fixed to comply with BS 5534: the British Standard Code of practice for slating and tiling, and BS 8000: Part 6: the British Standard Code of practice for workmanship on building sites. To ensure compliance with these Standards we recommend that a calculated fixing specification be obtained using Sandtoft’s Fixing SPEC service. Alternatively, all tiles must be twice nailed and clipped. For further information go to Fixing SPEC at www.wienerberger.co.uk/roof/fixingspec or contact Sandtoft Technical Services on 0844 9395 999.
