If one word were to summarize M.C.A. (Maruhachi Ceramics of America, Inc.) and its competitively priced tile products, that word would be quality.

With nearly a century of experience, the M.C.A label is known worldwide for its excellent reputation in producing roofing tile. M.C.A. has made a commitment to research and development, so that we can be sure every tile you purchase is state-of-the-art in design, specialization and manufactured quality. In every phase of our production and with every variety of tiles, our goal is always the same: to manufacture a clay tile that is of consistent high quality.

PRODUCT PRESENTATION

M.C.A. standard styles include the One Piece “S” Mission, Straight Barrel Mission, Corona Tapered Mission, Classic Tapered Mission, Turret Tile, Oriental, MF108 Flat, and Improved “S” styles. M.C.A. also offers custom and other unique products.

Our computerized production lines allow us to combine modern technology with centuries-old ceramics knowledge to manufacture a wide variety of flashed colors. M.C.A. colors are “environmentally friendly” and are produced without the use of lead so there is no need to be concerned that rain run-off from your M.C.A. tile will contaminate the soil or water table.

DURABILITY

M.C.A.’s tiles are designed to stand up against the harshest elements, including earthquakes, heavy rain, strong wind, fire, and freeze-thaw conditions. Our tiles are rated Grade 1 according to ASTM C1167 industry standards. This is the American Society for Testing and Material’s rating for clay roofing tile that provide the greatest resistance to severe frost action and the least water absorption.

AUTHENTICITY

M.C.A.’s roofing tile is made of 100% clay, carefully mined and tested during each manufacturing process.

FIRE RESISTANCE

M.C.A.’s firing process makes our tile a wise investment. Virtually impervious to fire, M.C.A. tiles are rated “Class A” ASTM E108 Test (UL790) approved.

WIND RESISTANCE

M.C.A.’s One Piece “S” Mission and MF108 Interlocking Flat Tile can be installed in areas of wind up to 155 MPH, such as Guam or the Caribbean, or 120, MPH in the Metro-Dade County.

USE AND APPLICATIONS

A world apart from anything you have specified before, M.C.A. Clay Roof Tile is a major element in roofing design. Our products have been used extensively on military, custom, residential, commercial, educational, and institutional buildings. M.C.A. Clay Roof Tile is well suited for applications in areas designated for high wind and freeze/thaw conditions. A 3:12 pitch is a minimum application for a roof; however, many installations include steeper pitched mansard roofs, turrets and unique custom designs.
