Coupled with this now unique facility to generate traditional natural clay colours, Dreadnought also manufactures bespoke ornamental ridges and finials as well as handmade fittings. Dreadnought generates colours through the careful control of the kiln atmosphere without the use of surface stains or coloured sands. This traditional technique delivers vibrant clay colours that look natural on the roof and blend particularly well; sometimes colour blends are the solution to match discontinued tiles produced in coal fired kilns.
