Homeowners want cost effective eco-friendly building products that look good, are high performance but with low lifetime maintenance . Builders are looking for lower cost, labour saving materials. We have developed AthyECOSlate, a hard plastic roof tile made from recycled materials to satisfy both.

Our roof slate has significant advantages over traditional roof tile materials such as ceramic, slate or cement. AthyECOSlate is much quicker and easier to install and it can be walked on without cracking. It is light weight so your roof design needs less supports and can be more flexible from a design viewpoint. It is durable, low cost and requires no maintenance as they will not crack, lift, break or warp. As they do not contain any natural minerals or asphalt/cement, they do not encourage the growth of algae and moss.

Because of their constant exposure to the elements traditional roof slates and roof tiles are prone to colour fading, cracking and breakdown over the years. Have a look at many houses less than 5 years old that use cheap slates & tiles and you will already see a significant deterioration in the colour, minerals coming to the surface, algae blooms, flaking and lifting. These problems are overcome by the use of UV stabilisers in an impact modified polymer resin ensuring they will outperform any other type of roof slate or roof tile. By using AthyECOSlate you get the elegance and real natural slate look but without the associated problems as you will never have to worry about cracked or broken slates again.
