Swisspearl: Setting the Standard with BBA Certification 

Certification from the British Board of Agrément (BBA) is widely recognised as a mark of quality, technical integrity, and fitness for purpose in the UK construction industry. BBA certificates are only awarded to products that successfully meet the most rigorous standards for performance, durability, and compliance.

Weather resistance 
Durability (service life in excess of 30 years) 
Fire performance (All Swisspearl slates have a fire rating of A2, S1-d0)
