Evolution of Tiled Roofs, Overcoming the Limitations of Traditional Roofs with Modern Commercial Technology

Jun 24, 2025

With technology that maximizes modern convenience and functionality while preserving the aesthetics of traditional tiles, CEO Kim Jong-wook of Hyundai Corporation, who continues to grow sustainably based on the trust of customers, took over the family business and specialized in the 'special steel roof construction' business. Beyond simple succession, he is presenting a new paradigm in the roof construction market by adding modern interpretation to traditional techniques.

Hyundai Corporation's main technology is the 「Color Steel Roof Improvement Method」. This method is constructed by adding it to the existing roof using a specially treated colored steel sheet. Since there is no need to remove existing roofing materials, the construction period is reduced and the cost reduction effect is great. In addition, high-strength color steel sheets are resistant to corrosion and have excellent color retention, so they can capture aesthetics and durability at the same time.

CEO Kim explained, "We don't just put it on, but we make comprehensive improvements to insulation, waterproofing, and aesthetics through custom design and material selection optimized for the structure of the building."




Hyundai Corporation provides customized roof improvements for various types of buildings such as museums, temples, churches, and country houses. In particular, it is receiving excellent evaluation in construction that requires adding modern functions while maintaining the appearance of antique buildings such as traditional cultural properties. In temples and museums where cultural property management standards are strict, preservation of appearance is essential, but internal performance improvement is a realistic need. Hyundai is one of the few companies that can meet these demands. Recently, it has received the attention of the industry by successfully carrying out large-scale roof remodeling projects targeting aging rural housing complexes.

In addition to simple construction, Hyundai Corporation is also securing the efficiency of its distribution structure by conducting a wholesale and retail business for colored steel plates. By providing a one-stop service from material supply to construction, we are catching two rabbits: cost reduction and quality control.

CEO Kim said, `We always put customer satisfaction and quality first. Use only verified materials and construct only with the safest and most effective construction method. It aims to construct a semi-permanent roof without having to worry about repairing defects," he stressed.
