Natural slate properties and uses

Transform your home with natural slate and enjoy its beauty for many years to come. Slate isn't simply a stylish material for walls and flooring; it works just as well outdoors as it does inside and it's ideal for roofs, walls, or paving.

At MapSlate, you'll discover a wide range of slate that has been carefully chosen by us for its exceptional properties. Our Ligurian slate is sourced locally and it's perfect for use in both traditional and contemporary style homes. We also stock many other types of slate including Sea Slate, Black Slate, Green Slate, Purple Slate, Multicolor Slate, Quartzite, and Cardosia, enabling you to create the custom-made look you desire.

Our colored natural slate is the perfect solution when you have a particular look in mind. For example, delicate undertones of lilac and lavender enhance the sophisticated deep burgundy colour of our Purple Slate so it works well in almost any room. Team it with natural wood or with glossy black or white contemporary furniture. Multicolor Slate adds warmth and its unique markings are reminiscent of marble, while traditional Ligurian Slate adds texture and depth to any room. Try using Sea Slate for worktops. It's known for its smooth finish and resistance to acids and corrosion, so it's ideal for any kitchen, bathroom, laundry, or workroom.
  The wonderful thing about natural slate id that each slate is different, so you're always guaranteed a finish that's unique to your home. It feels cool to the touch in summer and warm in winter, and slate is a naturally sourced material that will last for decades. Whether you're paving a patio or looking for a vibrant and durable floor tile for the bathroom, you're sure to be inspired by the extensive range of slate at MapSlate.
