UK's leading manufacturer launches brochures for interior and exterior uses.
New coffee table-style brochures showcasing Welsh Slate products for interior as well as exterior applications have been launched by the leading UK manufacturer.
Available through www.welshslate.com, the eight-page brochures dispel the myth once and for all that Welsh Slate, part of the Breedon Group, is just about roofing, with stunning photographs proving the product's versatility for a wide range of uses.
Both beautifully illustrated brochures talk briefly about the company's quarries in North Wales, including Penrhyn at Bethesda and Cwt-y-Bugail in Llan Ffestiniog, being a focal point for the production of UK natural stone for the past 700 years - the slate's 500 million-year-old pedigree is reflected in the fact it is still handcrafted.
Although both show the range of colours (Penrhyn Heather Blue and Grey and Cwt-y-Bugail Dark Blue Grey) and finishes (riven, honed, flamed and machined) there the similarity ends.
The exteriors brochure features copings and sills, as used at the ME Hotel in London, walling and cladding as used at the National Waterfront Museum and many prestige private properties, paving, and roofing as used at York Racecourse and St Mary Abbots Church, London.
The interiors brochure features flooring, as used at the British Museum, interior walling and cladding, worktops, and fire and hearth surrounds.
No matter inside or out, the brochures reinforce Welsh Slate's suitability for a wide range of contemporary and heritage architectural and interior design uses due to its aesthetics, durability and low maintenance.
