Crown Roof Tiles

What Crown Roof Tiles does

Crown Roof Tiles is an international manufacturer of concrete and clay roof tiles and complementary roofing accessories, operating under the legal entity Crown Building Products, LLC and led by a family leadership team headed by CEO Juan Prestamo and VP of US Operations Luis Prestamo. The company produces a high barrel, low profile barrel, and flat profile tiles (slate and shake styles) for residential and commercial construction, with a Florida Signature Series (Sanibel, Tuscany, Windsor Slate, Windsor Shake, Windsor Split Slate), a Texas Signature Series (Mediterranean, Iberia, Tuscany, Windsor Slate, Windsor Shake, Windsor Split Shake), a Texas Clay Series (Toledo), and accessory SKUs including the Easy Form Plus universal flashing, Unibond Mortar with proprietary chemical additives, Acrylic Sealer, and color oxide systems.

The core technology is concrete tile extrusion using approximately 75% sand and 25% cement, with third-party certified performance under ASTM C-67, C-1492, and E330-97, FM 4473 impact resistance up to Class 4, and code-mandated approvals including Miami-Dade NOA, Florida Building Commission, and TDI windstorm certification. Manufacturing is multi-jurisdictional: the Arcadia, Florida plant is described as the main US plant; a second US plant operates in Mansfield, Texas (Dallas/Fort Worth), with distribution yards in Medley, FL and Pharr, TX; UK operations span Burton-on-Trent (two plants) and Lockerbie, Scotland under the Russell Roof Tiles brand acquired in November 2011; and a roof tile and stone/paver plant operates in Garcia, Nuevo Leon, Mexico via Mextile (Presajet SAPI de CV).

Crown Roof Tiles operates a sales-led, two-step distribution model combining a select US distributor network with territory-based direct sales representatives covering five Florida regions and six Texas regions; pricing is not publicly disclosed and is set via direct sales contact and sample requests. Revenue is generated exclusively through hardware sales of tiles, trim, and accessories, serving Residential Construction (homeowners, builders, developers) and Commercial Construction (commercial builders, large projects) on a horizontal segmentation basis. Marketing channels span organic social (Facebook, Instagram, Flickr, YouTube, Twitter, Houzz), a content-rich website with CAD detail libraries, product literature and MSDS sheets, trade association affiliations (FRSA, TRI, FBC, Miami-Dade County, TDI), and video content for product demonstration and certification testing.

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• BMI Group (Redland): UK/European leader in pitched roof systems including concrete and clay roof tiles under the Redland brand — closely comparable to Crown's Russell Roof Tiles subsidiary in product category, customer (roofing contractors), and UK market position.
• Eagle Roofing Products: A leading U.S. manufacturer of concrete roof tiles (high-barrel, low-barrel, flat profiles) serving residential and commercial construction across the Sun Belt — directly comparable product portfolio, customer base (builders/roofers), and GTM model to Crown Roof Tiles.
• Ludowici Roof Tile: Manufacturer of both clay and concrete roof tiles serving residential, commercial, and institutional projects with specialty profiles and architectural-grade offerings — directly comparable product mix to Crown's Clay and Signature Series.
• Entegra Roof Tile: U.S. concrete roof tile manufacturer with regional plants in the Southeast and West — competing head-to-head with Crown's Florida/Texas footprint on similar profiles, builder customers, and code-driven specifications.
• Westlake Royal Roofing Solutions: Westlake's roofing division (formerly Boral Roofing) is one of the largest North American concrete and clay roof tile manufacturers with broad profile, color, and accessory ranges — directly comparable to Crown's Signature and Clay Series across similar distribution channels.

Emerging players

• MCA Clay Tile (Brava Roof Tile): U.S. manufacturer of composite/synthetic roof tiles that mimic clay and concrete at lighter weight — competes for the same aesthetic-tile buyer but with a differentiated lighter-weight value proposition that could pressure concrete incumbents like Crown.

Broad incumbents

• CertainTeed (Saint-Gobain): Saint-Gobain's roofing division offering asphalt shingles, concrete tile, and accessories through a broad building-products distribution network — broader incumbent competing with Crown for builder/contractor mindshare in concrete tile.
• GAF Materials: North America's largest roofing manufacturer, dominant in asphalt shingles but also offering concrete tile and accessory lines through its broader portfolio — sets pricing benchmarks and installer relationships Crown must compete against.

Others

• Terreal Group: European clay and concrete roof tile manufacturer with international operations — comparable in product category to Crown's Clay Series and adjacent to Russell Roof Tiles' UK/European position, though primarily France/EU focused.

Regional players

• Marley (formerly Marley Eternit, now part of BMI): UK-focused roofing systems manufacturer known for concrete tiles and components; comparable to Russell Roof Tiles but primarily serving Great Britain, with no meaningful U.S. overlap with Crown.
