When it comes to Fibre cement Slate, leave nothing to chance and choose to cover your roof with the strongest and most stylish slates available.

These fibre cement slates have been used on roofs in the UK for over nearly 30 years. You can be confident that these slates are very suitable to withstand all types of weather conditions so much so that they come with a 30year structural guarantee.

Why choose fibre cement slates?


  • Dimensional Stability: These slates offer structural consistency, requiring no preliminary grading before fixing. This combined with their ease of installation results in considerable savings in time and associated costs on site.
  • Lightweight:  Due to their light weight, fibre cement slates do not require a heavy load bearing roof construction, which means less timber is required for the structure.
  • Easy to Work With:  The strength and stability of these slates make them resistant to breakage and very easy to work with on site.
  • Environmentally Friendly:  Along with using organic fibres, the slates are also coated with a high-quality and durable acrylic paint, which is water-based.
  • Easy to handle: The slates are strapped in easy to handle bundles.
  • Moss inhibiting  constituents: In order to prevent moss growth, special moss inhibiting constituents are added to the double coating.
