Sustainability and performance
Natural slate is extracted from the earth using age-old methods to produce roofing slate which is known to have a lifespan in excess of the building it protects. It has a very low embodied carbon footprint, can be recycled as a reclaimed item and eventually, when its lifecycle is over, returned to the earth from where it came, with little damage and environmental impact.
By complying with strict BS EN 12326 criteria UK/EU certification, NF standard, UKCA and CE requirements, natural slate is a product used worldwide, known for its resistance to colour change and long-term durability.
