Terreal celebrates Stockist Nite 2016An evening with business partners and clients

to celebrate an eventful 2015 and a promising 2016.

APPROPRIATELY ENOUGH, La Nuit Française (French Night)

was the theme for the evening when Terreal, Malaysia’s leading

manufacturer of clay roof tiles and roofing solutions specialist, got

together with its fraternity of stockist partners and customers. With

the Terreal sales and marketing team playing host, there was more

to the occasion than just camaraderie and cuisine – there was also

cause for celebrating what has been, for the company, an eventful

2015. From its customer-oriented manufacturing plant in Kluang

to its ever-increasing clientele of building owners, Terreal’s roofing

solutions are benchmarked by cost (affordability, durability and easy

installation) and energy efficiency, innovation and quality that can

be relied on.

The Year That WasIn reviewing 2015, Mr Julien Chnebierk, Managing Director, Terreal

Malaysia, cited the many milestone achievements that have kept the

Terreal banner flying high in the preceding year, including:

• expansion into the Johor market with opening of new showroom

in the state capital;

• inaugurating, for the first time worldwide, Terreal’s new logo

and tagline “Building Beauty”;

• launch of Terreal’s new brochure;

• recognition by the Malaysian-French Chamber of Commerce

and Industry (CCIFM) of Terreal as the best performing French

company in Malaysia;

• new iconic projects clinched in China, Taiwan and Penang.

The Year AheadIn the ensuing year, given the “slower economic momentum” and

lacklustre Malaysian property market, Terreal will be bracing itself

for the challenging time ahead by:

• accentuating its core principles of quality and innovation for

both products and services, while staying loyal to its practised

value of CARING;

• with the industry-wide endorsement by the Japan Clay

Manufacturers Association “clay is a natural cooling material

even without insulation material, is much less noisy (20

decibels) than metal and provide durable performance with

no maintenance cost”, Terreal will continue to leverage on and

highlight these and other benefits of cost-efficient clay roof

tiles;

• educating/service of business partners and clients through

programmes such as ‘roofer training day’ and on-site support;

• investing in fundamental research with top Malaysian

universities on roof performance to always improve solutions

offered to customers (HomeValue+ systems) through product

testing, analysis and improvement (e.g., wind-blowing

resistance and thermal insulation);

• with the industry in mind, yet another exciting new development

is the launch of Terreal’s Facebook page, which will enhance

accessibility to the full range of the company products and

services and to which all visitors are welcome;

• launching of Romane Origin, a new reference in terms of

aesthetics, as well as a breakthrough unique “Diabolo” flooring

product;

• continually innovating and offering the best in products and

services, taking a holistic approach to all roofing solutions

insofar as caring for people, their home and their environment.■
