Macktiles Lanka Pvt. Ltd, a 100% Sri Lankan manufacturer of a wide range of commercial and household floor tiles conforming to ISO and SLS standards, was awarded the Gold Standard CIOB Green Mark Award at the Sri Lankan Green Awards Night held recently. The event was organised by the Ceylon Institute of Builders (CIOB), the premier professional body of building and construction professionals in Sri Lanka.

“We take the same innovative approach to the environment as we do with our products. We are thus deeply honoured and proud to have been bestowed with the CIOB Green Mark Award for the passion with which we make our products. All our products are manufactured with customer safety and environmental friendliness in mind. As a result of our continuous effort to improve, we are proud to have reached this gold standard. We thank our loyal customers for choosing Macktiles and strengthening our relationship in order to go green for a sustainable future”, said CEO of Macksons Holdings Shimmer Milfer.

“Being awarded the CIOB Green Award is one of the most important milestones Macktiles has reached so far. It is an endorsement of the effort, dedication and hard work put in by the Macktiles team to ensure that we produce the best quality products in the market for our valuable customers. This certification is also a further testament of the company’s commitment to enhancing the global movement towards being eco-friendly. It is also in recognition of the company’s ambition to be one of the most sought after floor tile providers in the region, backed by a motivated, skilled customer - centric team of professionals, headed by our General Manager Thajitha Perera, who has revolutionised the tile industry of Sri Lanka with an innovative approach, using state-of-the-art automatic Italian manufacturing facilities”, Milfer added.

A durable tile is a greener tile. When products can be used longer, fewer resources need to be extracted to make new ones. Macktiles constantly innovates using greener materials in order to create safer products. “We know that our island and our planet deserves our best thinking. We thus take the same innovative approach to the environment as we do with our products, introducing products which comply to the highest international safety standards”, he concluded.

Macktiles are now available island wide through a wide network of committed distributors and dealers.
