The slate roof tiles tradition is higher in those areas where natural quarries were originally, such as Spain, England, Wales, France and Portugal. Actually, most slate in Europe comes from Spain, which is in fact, the world’s largest producer and exporter of natural slate. 90% of Europe’s natural slate used for roofing comes from Spanish quarries.

Thanks to its natural properties, slate can be easily exfoliated into different sizes and thicknesses layers. After being exfoliated, slate tiles retain their natural appearance while remaining flat and easy to place.

Natural slate roof tiles add value to any building while affording more lasting protection than any other materials. And the most well-known architects know it: they choose roofing slates for their durability, beauty and high quality performance.
