What is slate?
Why Slate?
LASTS A LIFETIME - given slate’s durability (tests prove that premium slate lasts a minimum of 75 years), it’s one of those products you specify once and never again.
100% NATURAL MATERIAL - unrepeatable and unusual.
VAST DESIGN POTENTIAL - slate is a flexible material and can usually be tailored to fit with most design requirements. Whether you need a large size, a thicker slate or a combination of colours on one design all of this can be catered for.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY - given the longevity of slate, and the absence of machine-intensive production techniques, slate is a green material.
UNFADING OVER ITS LIFESPAN - the mineral content of slate is such that good quality slate does not change colour, fade or deteriorate over time.
LOW MAINTENANCE - once installed, minimal maintenance will be required over the roof’s lifespan.
