Cedral Fibre Cement Slates: The Smart Choice of Modern Roofs and Facades
Whether you are planning a new build or a renovation, choosing the right roofing and facade solution can make all the difference. Cedral Fibre Cement Slates are the perfect alternative to natural slate and offer everything you need: lightweight performance, outstanding durability, versatile design options, and strong sustainability credentials, all in one product range.
Performance You Can Count On
Built to recognised standards
Cedral fibre cement slates are manufactured in Europe to BS5534 standards, meet the strength requirements of BS EN 492, and carry an A2-s1, d0 fire classification, giving contractors, specifiers, and homeowners complete confidence in their performance.
With a minimum life expectancy of 50 years, excellent weather resistance, and a robust composition that resists cracking, splitting, and weathering, Cedral slates are a long-term investment in your property.
As weather patterns become increasingly unpredictable, Cedral slates are highly resistant to severe frosts, heavy rainfall, high heat, and direct sunlight. They also resist bacteria, algae, and insects.
Lightweight, But Never Compromised
Cedral fibre cement slates are consistently lighter than clay, concrete, and natural slate products, yet deliver the same strength and performance. Thanks to the layered production process and fibre matrix, Cedral slates place less demand on roof-bearing structures, require less timber in the build, and are easier and faster to install on site, translating to real savings in time, labour, and cost for contractors.
Design Flexibility for Roofs and Facades
Cedral slates are not just a roofing solution; they are a design statement. Available in a range of colours and finishes, with square or dressed edges and smooth or textured surfaces, they offer design possibilities for both roofs and facades. You can even extend the same slate across the roof and facade to create a striking, coordinated exterior finish.
