Decra Fortiza Roofing System
Fortiza® Roofing System
Designed for Durability, Aesthetic, and Value
We proudly supply Fortiza® Roofing Systems, a world-class stone-coated steel roofing solution that blends advanced engineering, natural materials, and affordability. Fortiza® Roofing Systems was manufactured in collaboration between Fletcher Building, RoofTG, and Afrcan Supplies Limited (ASL) to meet the needs of developers and homeowners seeking a high-quality product at an affordable price.
Larger Tiles for Greater Efficiency
Fortiza® tiles are designed with efficiency in mind and up to 10% larger than standard roof tiles. That means you will need fewer tiles per square meter, which doesn’t just save time during installation. It also reduces the amount of timber required for battening, cutting both costs and environmental impact.
Fewer tiles mean fewer cuts and quicker results — roofing made simple.

OUR PRODUCTS
Fortiza® offers two distinctive profiles to suit a wide range of architectural styles. Each profile combines timeless beauty with advanced material strength.
Beauty, Value and Affordability
Inspired by traditional European clay tiles, the Fortiza® Tile Profile delivers a timeless, elegant look ideal for residential homes and prestige commercial buildings. Its curved shape provides effective drainage and beautiful shadow lines that enhance the roof’s character.
Affordable Luxury
The Fortiza® Shingle Profile mirrors the look of classic timber shingles, adding texture and visual interest to your roof. It’s well-suited for both modern and traditional architectural designs, providing strength and style.
ALU-ZINC STEEL
Fortiza® roof tiles are manufactured from Alu-Zinc Steel, which extends the lifespan of your roof by 6 to 9 times compared to galvanized steel. The Alu-Zinc core offers excellent corrosion resistance, especially in coastal environments where rust protection is critical. This makes Fortiza® an outstanding choice for long-term durability in a variety of settings.
NATURAL STONE
Each Fortiza® tile is coated with natural volcanic stone from New Zealand. This stone provides additional protection against weather extremes while giving Fortiza® its vibrant, unique look. The natural stone ensures the colour stays true over time, it won’t change or fade, keeping your roof looking beautiful for decades.
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
Fortiza® tiles feature a patented basecoat that deeply embeds the stone chip, achieving 100% coverage even when tiles are bent during installation. This design ensures the stone chip remains intact during handling, installation, and heavy rainfall. Combined with five additional protective layers, this technology maximizes the life of your roof and safeguards the steel core against the elements.

Superior Performance
AZ150 ALU-ZINC STEEL
Decra® has pioneered the use of alu-zinc steel. Nothing less than 150g of alu-zinc per square metre (known as AZ150) is acceptable, as only this amount can guarantee a 50 year performance, as prescribed by our market leading warranty.
Our Alu-zinc steel is further protected by an anti-fingerprint acrylic resin to protect the steel from handling during manufacture, transport and installation.
NATURAL VOLCANIC STONE
Decra® roofing tiles are coated with natural stone chips, volcanically formed and taken from quarries in New Zealand. These coatings add natural beauty to the roof and a hard layer of protection from the harsh African weather. Being of natural stone, the vibrant colour is protected against the extreme UV of the African sun and will never change.
ADVANCED BASECOAT
Since 1957 we have continually innovated and developed our technology so that today we lead the way in design, quality, performance and durability. Our natural stone chips are embedded deep in our own patented basecoat and sealed in a special acrylic resin to ensure they stay permanently fixed to the tile. The finished tiles are then baked in a 100m long oven to ensure durability.
QUANTUM COATING TECHNOLOGY®
All of our unique technology is packaged in our patented next generation vanguard; QCT®. Quantum Coating Technology is only available as a feature of Genuine Decra® and the combination of our advanced technologies helps keep your roof looking newer for longer.
