Lanka Tiles: A Proud Sri Lankan Brand with Global Recognition







Have you heard about the Lanka Tiles brand?
I remember hearing about it since I was a child — how tiles made in Sri Lanka had earned international recognition. Even as a young girl, I felt a deep sense of pride knowing that something produced in our small island was respected across the globe.

That memory stayed with me over the years. So recently, I decided to dig deeper and explore this precious Sri Lankan brand that continues to make our country proud.




🧱 The Beginning of Lanka Tiles

Lanka Tiles was established in 1984. At the time, there was no proper tile industry in Sri Lanka. The company began as an export-oriented venture, focusing on international markets rather than the local one.

Today, Lanka Tiles produces around:

  • 🏭 13,000 square meters of floor tiles

  • 🧱 7,500 square meters of wall tiles — every single day!

That’s a massive production scale for a brand that started with a vision to put Sri Lanka on the global industrial map.

🇱🇰 From Exporter to Household Name

Initially, Lanka Tiles didn’t sell their products in the local market. But once they entered it, there was an overwhelming response. The demand skyrocketed, and very soon, their tiles became a household necessity in Sri Lanka.

Over time, they didn’t just meet domestic needs — they set industry standards.

🌍 A Global Sri Lankan Brand

Lanka Tiles is not just a local success story. They export around 20% of their products to premium markets, including:

  • 🇯🇵 Japan

  • 🇨🇦 Canada

  • 🇦🇺 Australia

  • 🇪🇺 Various European countries

These are markets known for their high-quality standards, and Lanka Tiles has managed to match — and sometimes exceed — those expectations.




💼 A Brand that Grew with Vision

Thanks to consistent profits and smart reinvestment, Lanka Tiles has diversified and expanded its product range over the years. Looking ahead, they are committed to:

  • ⚙️ Enhancing product quality

  • 🧬 Adding unique design elements

  • 🌐 Strengthening their global presence

They’re not just maintaining a reputation — they’re raising the bar for what a Sri Lankan product can achieve globally.

🏷️ Why Lanka Tiles is Unique

Here’s something you might not know:
Lanka Tiles is the only globally recognized export brand that carries the name “Lanka.”

That means it’s not just a product — it’s a national representation. When people across the world see “Lanka Tiles,” they see Sri Lanka.

What makes it even more impressive is that they have maintained the same high standard across both domestic and international markets. That consistency in quality is what truly sets them apart.

💬 Final Thoughts

Lanka Tiles is more than just a tile company — it's a symbol of Sri Lankan resilience, quality, and innovation. It proves that a brand born in our own soil can stand tall among the giants of the world.

So next time you walk across a beautifully tiled floor, take a moment to wonder — could this be a Lanka Tile, proudly made in Sri Lanka?
