Lankatiles launches app packed with unique features

Lankatiles, the pioneers in wall and floor tile manufacturing in Sri Lanka, recently launched a tile app under its brand name ‘Lankatiles’– one of the first comprehensive apps by a Sri Lankan tile manufacturer. The app makes tile purchasing a smooth experience, providing customers and builders with a look and feel of the myriad tiling options available, even before they step into a tile store. The Lankatiles app can be freely downloaded for Android, iOS and Windows operating systems. The app features Lankatiles’ entire collection of wall and floor tiles and provides users the option to bookmark favourite tiles and browse the entirety of its tile collection. The app’s Tile Visualizer feature allow customers to apply a preferred tile design to a virtual wall/floor, enabling them to better picture the end-result of a tiled space. Moreover, customers can also access a database of over 3500 trained tilers around the island with ease. The app also provides the contact details of local showrooms and international distributors as well as news about media releases and special promotions or discounts that Lankatiles may have on offer. “We have been in the business for over four decades and we understand that building a house or a commercial building or embarking on renovations can sometimes be a cumbersome process. Lankatiles has always kept abreast with trends and changes in the market and this app was launched to cater to the changing needs and wants of time-strapped customers and alleviate any stress or building woes a customer may have. With nearly 30 percent Internet penetration in Sri Lanka, 4.90 million social media users and 26.36 million mobile subscriptions as of 2016, we decided to launch the app in order to streamline the process of choosing the correct tiles for your dream home, making tile shopping an enjoyable and stress-free experience,” said Lanka Walltiles PLC and Lanka Tiles PLC Managing Director Mahendra Jayasekera, commenting on the significance of the Lankatiles app for the Sri Lankan market. Lankatiles produces a wide range of tiling concepts in a variety of colours, textures and sizes under the brand name Lankatiles. With a production capacity of 6.4 million square metres per year in a facility where design, materials and technology blend perfectly with aesthetics, the company delivers a total tile package to satisfy the requirements of designers, architects and homeowners. Its high-quality tiles, which come in several attractive designs, are exported to over 20 countries, with all products conforming to ISO 9001, ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001, SLS and CE standards. Lankatiles is also deeply committed to the well-being of the environment and preserving its beauty, as a result of this it obtained the GREENSL Label (GREENSL STAR) for its full range of wall and floor tiles from the Green Building Council of Sri Lanka (GBCSL), which is the local representative of the World Green Building Council.
