A riven texture for a desirable slate-like finish
Experiencing the vast variety of textures and colours that our roof tiles provide up close, can guide you in the decision making process when selecting roof coverings. Our efficient sample service can help you in the process.
Riven Edgemere is a single-lap solution that allows quick and easy installation and is compatible with our full range of ventilation and dry fix systems.
The clean, sleek appearance of these slate-like tiles offers enormous kerb appeal. These tiles are only 18mm thick and are laid with a special broken-bond laying technique, unlike standard interlocking tiles and great performance at pitches as low as 17.5°.
Accreditation to the BES 6001 framework standard for 'Responsible Sourcing' means that projects using our concrete interlocking slates can now achieve extra credits under BREEAM and the Home Quality Mark (HQM).
