What is the history of roof tiles and how have they evolved over time?

Roof tiles have a rich history that dates back to ancient times. In China, roof tiles have been used for over 5,000 years, and Langfang Bonai is proud to be a part of this tradition. Here is a brief overview of the evolution of roof tiles from the perspective of Langfang Bonai.
The earliest roof tiles were made of clay and were used in China during the Shang dynasty (1600-1046 BCE). These tiles were hand-formed and sun-dried, which made them brittle and prone to cracking. However, they were still an improvement over earlier roofing materials like thatch and animal skins.

During the Han dynasty (206 BCE-220 CE), kilns were invented that allowed for the firing of roof tiles. This made them much more durable and less susceptible to weathering. The Tang dynasty (618-907 CE) saw the introduction of glazed roof tiles, which added a layer of protection against moisture and improved the aesthetic appeal of the tiles.

In the Ming dynasty (1368-1644 CE), roof tiles became more elaborate and decorative. The imperial palaces and temples were adorned with ornate roof tiles that were shaped like dragons, phoenixes, and other mythical creatures. This tradition of decorative roof tiles continues in China today, and Langfang Bonai offers a wide variety of decorative tiles to suit any taste.

In the modern era, roof tiles have continued to evolve. New materials like plastic and metal have been introduced, and new manufacturing techniques have been developed that allow for more precise and efficient production. However, Langfang Bonai remains committed to the traditional craft of making high-quality clay roof tiles that are durable, beautiful, and environmentally friendly.


In conclusion, the history of roof tiles in China is a long and fascinating one, and Langfang Bonai is proud to be a part of this industry. We are FRP, PC, and ASA roof sheets maufacturer.
