One of Sri Lanka’s leading tile manufacturers, LANKATILES, has announced the grand opening of its 58th showroom and second outlet in Galle, located at Matara Road, Pettigala Watta.
This latest addition marks a significant milestone in LANKATILES’ continued journey of design excellence, innovation, and trusted service built over more than five decades.
Inspired by the heritage charm and timeless architecture of Galle, a UNESCO recognised destination renowned for its cultural tapestry and historic streets, the new showroom blends local architectural heritage with contemporary living needs, truly reflecting the brand promise of creating spaces you would love to live in.
“Galle’s unique character, shaped by centuries of history, art, and human ingenuity, resonates deeply with LANKATILES’ ethos of design integrity and aesthetic depth,” said Priyantha Talwatte, Managing Director of LANKATILES.
The new showroom showcases standout products including the Majestica large format tile collections and mosaics, ideal for modern living spaces, luxury tourism projects, boutique hotels, and heritage restorations that demand both quality and visual impact.
As Sri Lanka’s tourism sector continues to grow, strategic destinations such as Galle play a vital role in LANKATILES’ long-term expansion strategy. The company aims to strengthen its presence in the Southern market through enhanced accessibility, tailored solutions, and meaningful collaboration with industry stakeholders.
“We recognise the indispensable role of architects, designers, contractors, and tilers in shaping inspiring spaces,” Talwatte added. “We look forward to deepening partnerships across the region, celebrating creativity that transforms environments and enriches everyday living.”
The new showroom is operated by franchise owner Yasith Ranu Karunasekara, a Southern Province-based entrepreneur with a strong appreciation for design-driven business and customer-centric service.
“This showroom is more than a retail space; it is a destination where imagination meets craftsmanship,” said Karunasekara. “We are excited to support local homeowners, hospitality developers, and professionals in redefining spaces across the Southern region.”
