Our natural slate products are specifically engineered to combat coastal challenges, including salt spray, high winds, and extreme weather conditions prevalent in maritime environments across the UK.
Our Del Carmen slate and Riverstone phyllite undergo rigorous testing to ensure optimal performance in challenging coastal conditions, maintaining their integrity while protecting buildings from harsh marine elements.
Del Carmen slate, sourced from our partner quarries in Spain, offers exceptional water absorbance rates, preventing the internal degradation often seen in lesser materials exposed to harsh environments, making it ideal for coastal roofing projects from Wales to Glasgow. Its natural density and precisely engineered thickness provide superior protection against coastal winds and driving rain.
Our Riverstone phyllite, quarried from our own site in Argentina, provides superior protection with near-zero water absorption rates ensuring lasting performance for coastal cladding and roof repairs. The material's unique geological composition provides excellent resistance to salt spray.
