New Tile, Metal Roofs for Noel-Damaged Homes

Las Tunas, Nov 23 (acn) Metallic overlapping roof sheets for some 
15,000 homes plus 80,000 clay roof tiles to repair homes recently 
damaged by the tropical storm Noel were manufactured in the Empresa de 
Estructuras Metalicas of Las Tunas province (METUNAS).

In record time, METUNAS manufactured some 80,000 clay roof tiles to 
repair homes damaged by the intense rain brought about by tropical 
storm Noel last October in the five eastern provinces plus the central 
area of Camaguey.

 From January 2006 to date, METUNAS has provided tiles to roof 65,000 
houses, the enterprise technical manager Bernardo Perez Rivera told ACN.

METUNAS currently manufactures galvanized steel sheets and iron 
fittings for the repair work undertaken by the government in schools, 
hospitals, and clinics. The enterprise also manufactures sheet metal 
covers to build houses for long term use and very resistant to the 
inclement weather.
