To meet the rapidly growing demand for wall and floor tiles in the local market, Lanka Tiles recently entered into a strategic partnership with an Indian tile manufacturer, Ambani Vitrified (Pvt) Ltd.
Lanka Tiles has placed a large order with the expectation of releasing more quantities of 24” x 24” tiles to the market to meet market demand. The tiles will comply with the standards imposed by the Sri Lanka Standards Institute and will carry the SLS mark. Managing Director of Lanka Walltiles PLC and Lanka Tiles PLC, Mahendra Jayasekera said, “We don’t want to disappoint consumers as they have maintained great trust in Lank Tiles. Therefore, to keep up with the ever increasing demand, we have decided to partner with one of the best tile producers in India. The tiles will be produced in India but will be sold under our brand name ‘Lankatiles’.” “We have stationed a few of our employees at the plant in Gujarat to ensure that the tiles are produced according to our strict guidelines, specifications and standards,” he said.
Lanka Tiles PLC, the pioneer floor tiles manufacturer in Sri Lanka was incorporated in 1984 and delivers a wide array of tiles in alluring colours, textures, designs as well as sizes to suit all needs
