S-lon – makes history by exporting the first Roofing Sheets Shipment to India

Press Release:S-lon Lanka (Pvt) Ltd which is a subsidiary of The Capital Maharaja Group, recently ventured beyond the local market by exporting a consignment of Roofing sheets & accessories to neighboring India.

There are several factors contributing to making S-lon Roofing Sheets the best in the market. They’re resistant to discoloration, fungus, do not require cleaning, look aesthetic and last longer. The sheets are also able to filter out of heat significantly offering coolness & comfort for tropical establishments & households. This feature makes S-lon roofing sheets particularly appealing to the Indian market where temperature levels have risen significantly over the past decades. The roofing sheets can be easily installed due to being considerably lighter when compared with alternatives.

Commenting on the new export venture, Mr S. C Weerasekera, The Group Director of Capital Maharaja Group remarked: “At S-lon we don’t make anything that is not good & safe to be used by our own loved ones. This is the very philosophy that incentivizes us to better our products via relentless Research & Development. We don’t chase after certifications, we strive for excellence – in doing so, certifications are bestowed upon us because not only do we meet required quality stipulations but we go beyond same.”

He added: “We take pride in being a Sri Lankan enterprise and as such see the present turbulent period as an appropriate time to make inroads into the foreign market in order to bring in much needed export revenue to stabilize the rupee. Also, India is a haven for opportunities as far as the construction sector is concerned and we look forward to a long, meaningful trade relationship with our neighboring nation.”

He further commented on how S-lon operates on a bottom-up approach meaning that perspectives from the grassroot level are critically assessed & valued rather than driving only the directives set out by the top management.

S-lon Roofing Sheets do not contain radioactive or carcinogenic components and are fully recyclable at the end of their lifespan in compliance with the green environment protection requirement. S-lon’s fire resistance capability is a key highlight of the product; this is due to its Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate (ASA) compounds for which the sheets have been awarded the DN 4102 – 1 certification. This means a sheet coming in contact with a naked flame would not spread but rather self-extinguish guaranteeing safety for structure & subjects within.

The inner & outer surfaces of S-lon Roofing Sheets are corrosion and decay-resistant when compared with alternatives. The sheets come with a 10-year warranty period and a multitude of color options to choose from. S-lon Roofing Sheets are available via dealers/hardware Stores Island wide.
