Athenastone® slate comes from established quarries in Europe. Expert masons cut slabs parallel to the natural layers of the stone to accentuate its attractive features and colours. Using special tools, the slabs are formed into smooth, flat sheets. The stone is sorted and graded, allowing us to bring high-grade, natural slate products to our customers in a variety of styles, including Filetti, which are long, narrow pieces that work well as paving and cladding. Hand-split cobblestones, hand-cut stepping stones and crazy & irregular pavers that can create looks ranging from classic to rustic. Of course, we can also make to order according to design requirements.
Slate is a foliated rock. During the process of metamorphism, the minerals become arranged in parallel sheets or plates, giving it a striated or banded appearance. Its fine-grained texture makes it highly suitable for outdoor use. It is resistant to heat and freezing and has a high slip slip-resistant rating.
