Our Vision
Our mission is to find economical and eco-friendly solutions to the manufacturing process without compromising on quality.

A lightweight alternative to real slate, up to 50% quicker to install, with the flexibility to use on curved roofs.
Self-Bonding
Over time, the slates bonds together under sunlight and UV to form a solid membrane.
Fire Rated A
Rigorously tested for fire exposure and compliant to BS476: Part 3: 2004 standard, with the highest Class ‘A’ rating.
ECO REVOLUTION
Strong, pliable and attractive roofing solution for a wide range of building applications
Eco Slate uses a state of the art formulation which provides a strong, pliable and attractive roofing option for a wide range of building applications. This self-bonding roof shingle has the unique flexibility for use on ridges and hips. There is no need for custom-made accessories because every slate can be cut and set to any angle or size you need.
The process gives a stronger, more pliable membrane and creates a roof that is wind and weather resistant, and provides better insulation even at low pitches.
Eco Slate installation is incredibly cost effective – it takes less than half the time of traditional slate, all without any damage, breakages or waste associated with real slate.
