Macktiles has announced the inauguration of its 29th outlet in Hikkaduwa, further solidifying its commitment to providing innovative solutions for enhancing lifestyles through cutting-edge tile designs.
The new outlet, strategically located at No. 26, Baddegama Road, Hikkaduwa, opened its doors on 9 January, showcasing Macktiles’ dedication to delivering luxury designs and a wide array of choices to the community in Hikkaduwa. Offering over 100 design options, all proudly manufactured in Sri Lanka, customers have the opportunity to explore and select from unique and uncommon designs.
In addition to its premium offerings, Macktiles unveiled its Nano Polish tiles which have a reflective finish emphasising the company’s commitment to technological innovation. These tiles bring an elegant and sophisticated touch to interiors, underscoring Macktiles’ commitment to creativity and customer satisfaction.
The Ultra Gres collection, designed to meet the demands of high-traffic areas, stands out for its unparalleled durability, scratch resistance, and non-slip features. These tiles are an ideal choice for spaces where performance and aesthetics seamlessly converge.
As a trailblazer in the industry for over four decades, Macktiles’ parent company, Macksons Holdings, continues to diversify and expand its reach beyond borders. This outlet also presents an opportunity for customers to purchase Multilac paint, another renowned brand under Macksons Holdings.
Macksons Holdings Managing Director Mizver Makeen said: “We take pride in offering unique and uncommon designs that are not only manufactured in Sri Lanka but also adhere to high-quality standards. Our commitment to innovation remains a core strength as we aim to cater to our esteemed customers.”
Macktiles has witnessed significant growth, highlighted by its Rs. 12 billion expansion in 2023, which included the establishment of a state-of-the-art tile manufacturing plant in Bandaragama. This expansion has boosted the company’s production capacity to an impressive 44,000 square meters of tiles per day, translating to a colossal 15 million square meters annually. This expansion not only ensures self-sufficiency in Sri Lanka’s tile manufacturing industry but also positions Macktiles to strategically enter international markets. The company currently exports its products to various countries, including Maldives, Dubai, Kenya, thereby contributing significantly to the country’s economic recovery with foreign currency earnings.
Macktiles has earned a reputation as one of the most impressive business entities in Sri Lanka, winning multiple national and international awards. The company’s continuous growth and success highlights its commitment to excellence and innovation.
