Slate is a natural product that has been used in roofing for hundreds of years. As a roofing material, slate has many great benefits!
Let’s take a look at some of the main advantages of using JRC’s quality slate tiles as a building material on your roof.
Fire Resistance
The formation of slate occurs when layers of rock are exposed to extreme pressure and heat. Those forces render the rock extremely resistant to heat and naked flames.
This natural property makes JRC slate a great choice as a roofing material because it greatly reduces the likelihood of the building’s roof catching alight in the event of a fire.
Fire resistant materials like slate can help to safeguard the wellbeing of those who use the building.
A Beautiful Finish
Everyone wants their buildings to look great, and slate tiles are prized for their simple beauty and the attractive finish they bring to any roof.
If you’re looking for a roof covering that looks fantastic as well as being practical, look no further than JRC’s beautiful slate products!
A Green Choice
Slate extraction requires much less energy and water usage than other modern roof coverings. By choosing slate over other options like concrete or fibre cement, you can help do your part in environmental conservation.
JRC offers British grades and imports from nearby European countries including Spain. By sourcing our materials from local markets rather than Asia, we minimise our company-wide CO2 emissions.
Very Long Lasting
Another great property of slate is its long lifetime. Well worth the investment, slate roof coverings last much longer than other conventional options and often outlast the buildings on which they stand!
A slate roof made with our products will not only look fantastic but will also be built to last.
