MUMBAI: Building solutions providers Everest has launched its new product Everest Super which is a colourful fibre cement roofing sheets with heat and water resistance and non-corrosive features. This is the first time ever in India that fibre cement roofs are made available in colour.

The corrugated fibre cement roofing sheets are easy to fix, economical and promise low noise, low heat and special properties of corrosion-free experience. As these sheets are made from finest quality cement and fibre through a unique fibre mesh technology they give you a product of long lasting value.

Everest Industries managing director Manish Sanghi says, “Everest Super is a truly innovative product that’s launched keeping in mind how colour can enhance the look of a roof and in turn the house itself. We hope that Everest Super becomes synonymous with the pride and development that reek of the rural India of today.”

The colourful roofing sheets with such prominent features demanded a communication that would appeal to its audience. Colour being an intricate part of the lifestyle in India is found everywhere–clothing, foods and festivals. Thus the film celebrates the village life and the people who it talks to.

Adding to the creative approach, What’s Your Problem associate creative director Mihir Chitre adds, “The attempt, as always, was to come from an insight. In this case, we realised that in the rural India of today, everything, from mobile covers to footwear, oozes colour. But surprisingly, roofs have always been an exception. Hence we decided to simply ask people if their whole life is colourful, why not the roof above the head. This became the campaign thought.”
