USES OF SLATE > ROOFS COVERING
SLATE: SIMPLY THE BEST IN THE FIELD OF ROOF COVERING MATERIALS.
IT’S NATURAL – ECOLOGICAL – VERY RESISTANT WATERPROOF – INSULATING – COLD RESISTANT
Slate is the best choice between all covering materials thanks to its unique chemical and physical properties, never matched by other roofing materials:
- it’s totally natural so it’s 100% ecological;
- it’s perfectly waterproof (slate doesn’t absorb humidity and avoids any leaks in underlying rooms);
- it’s bad conductor (it’s a very good natural insulator and allows very little changes of temperature in underlying rooms);
- it’s cold resistant (no temperature damages it, because it doesn’t absorb dampness which could chill);
- it provides your roof covering with a long-term resistance, as all the historical Ligurian buildings still show;
- it has an elegant and classical look
