Thomson Ridge Tile (RD1004): Traditional Clay Ridge Cap for Durable Roof Peaks

Complete your roofing system with the Thomson Ridge Tile (RD1004), a dependable ridge cap from Thomson Tiles – a respected Kerala manufacturer known for energy-efficient, high-quality clay products. This classic ridge tile is specifically engineered to cover and protect the highest point of pitched roofs, where two slopes meet, ensuring complete waterproofing while maintaining the authentic curved clay aesthetic that defines traditional Kerala architecture.

Made from carefully seasoned natural clay sourced from their own fields and fired to perfection, these ridge tiles feature generous overlap and a contoured profile for secure seating over field tiles (compatible with Thomson's Double Gadi and Single Gadi ranges). The heavier 3.8kg weight provides excellent stability against wind uplift, while the natural terracotta material offers breathability, fire resistance, and gradual patina development for an aged, elegant look.
