Hollow tile

Tradition and versatility for sophisticated roofs

If you value a durable and aesthetic roof, the hollow tile is an excellent choice. Its deeply curved shape creates a striking interplay of light and shadow, giving your home a very special look.

  • Ideal for monument protection
  • The short cut (perfect for complicated shed shapes) and the long cut (ideal for large areas) allow flexible adaptation to your roof
  • Glazes and reduction burning possible
  • Other special formats and surface colors on request
  • Various surface structures can be produced

Brick diversity for a Berlin industrial monument - Meyer-Holsen at the Friedrichshagen waterworks

A project like this doesn't come along every day: we supplied tiles that had to meet the highest aesthetic and technical requirements for the refurbishment of the roofs of the historic pumping machine houses A and B of the Friedrichshagen waterworks in Berlin in line with the preservation order.

The monument preservation authorities set clear specifications: Tile shape, cut length and, above all, a natural color play of three different shades of red were to match the original covering as closely as possible.

We supplied the entire roof area of approx. 3,200 m²:

  • Around 50,000 hollow tiles for the main roofs
  • around 7,500 Sankt Moritz tower tiles for the characteristic tower surfaces
  • approx. 3,500 Mönch-und-Nonne bricks with a hand-stroke look for battlements
  • as well as numerous shaped tiles, ridge and hip tiles for elaborate details

Why Meyer-Holsen?
👉 "The bricks came closest to the historical original - this was the only reason we were able to issue the tender with material specifications."
- Ina Paul, Site Manager, Berliner Wasserbetriebe

We are proud to contribute our expertise to the restoration of this unique building in keeping with its listed status.
