Cembrit Zeeland fibre cement slates offer an attractive riven surface with clean, square edges. This combination creates a roof slope with the detail of a natural slate finish and the neat regularity of a low profile slated effect. Guaranteed and fully accredited Cembrit Zeeland fibre cement slates are manufactured to the highest European standards. They are lightweight, pre-holed, and popular where the low profile random surface of natural slate is desired. Like all fibre cement slates Cembrit Zeeland is lightweight, easy to handle and install, making it a useful alternative to heavy interlocking tiles and costlier natural slate. Cembrit Zeeland slates are pigmented during production. They are fully compressed, with the textured surface protected by a high quality, semi-matt acrylic coloured coating which is also applied to the edges.
