From the depths of the earth,
on the roofs of the world
But slate enjoys an excellent reputation not only as a material for roofing. It is also suitable for the high-quality cladding of facades. Slate facades are durable and give a building an unmistakable, individual touch.
The natural stone slate
Versatile and Aesthetic.
Slate is a natural, durable material. It is therefore rightly described as ecologically valuable. Especially the very long life span of often more than 100 years justifies this reputation. Important references have been testifying to the quality and durability of this natural rock for centuries.
