Jutland Fibre-Cement Slate 600mm x 300mm Blue/Black
Achieve the classic look of natural slate with the practical benefits of modern fibre cement. Swisspearl Jutland 600 x 300mm Blue/Black is a high-quality, flat, square-edged roofing slate designed for a smart, low-profile finish on both new builds and refurbishments.
Manufactured from Portland cement blended with superior synthetic and cellulose fibres (asbestos-free), these fully compressed slates are pigmented during production for lasting colour consistency. They feature a durable semi-matt acrylic coating on the top face and edges, plus a high-performance binder on the reverse.
