Slatestone (Slate)
Slatestone, or simply slate, is recommended by leading architects,
designers and building professionals. The rugged look of slate imparts it a
distinct appeal. Slate is easy to clean and requires very little
maintenance. Slate also provides high slip resistance and is long lasting.
All these factors make it the ideal stone for a number of applications
including home interiors and exteriors, roofing, flooring, hearths,
fireplaces, wall claddings, landscaping, driveways, patios, windowsills and
pools. They are perfect for offices, restaurants and hotels. Slate is also
used for engravings, paintings and sculptures.
