Welsh Slate helps The Natural Stone Show to celebrate 25 years

Leading UK manufacturer Welsh Slate will exhibit its full range of architectural and roofing products at this year's The Natural Stone Show at ExCeL London from April 30th to May 2nd.

Welsh Slate (stand F30) is exhibiting at the show, which this year celebrates its 25th anniversary as the only UK exhibition and conference dedicated to natural stone, under its new Breedon Group umbrella.

All-natural Welsh Slate lends itself to a peerless range of contemporary interior and exterior design applications.

Available in a wide range of colours and finishes, it is particularly well known for roofing in heritage, historic and high-end new-build projects.

But its aesthetic qualities for a myriad of other applications are increasingly being recognised by designers, developers and clients, with it recently featuring, for example, externally as cladding and roofing, and internally as a fireplace, at the ground-breaking new Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice in Glasgow.

Other design applications for Welsh Slate, which is as durable as it is beautiful due to its 500 million year-old pedigree, include flooring, walling, paving, landscaping, sawn scants, and cills and copings, and worktops and counters. Material can be purchased either finished or as raw scant.

The natural slate is available in Heather Blue, Heather Red, Heather Grey and Dark Blue Grey colours and is unfading and non-porous. It has a useful life of well over 100 years and comes with a 100-year warranty for the roofing products.

Now celebrating its 25th anniversary, the show has established a core visitor profile which will be enhanced by its co-location with Hard Surfaces, the exhibition that showcases the latest products and trends in the fast-moving field of surface design, widening the visitor profile and offering further opportunity to promote the use of natural stone.
