Why use Slate?
Natural stone has been valued throughout the millennia for its
sculptural and architectural qualities. American Slate takes pride in
discovering the finest sources and bringing out the best in this
remarkable building material.
Our unique quarry relationships and proprietary mining and finishing
processes result in products that are harder, non-absorbent and more
consistent in thickness, for unparalleled performance and ease of
installation. Unlike lesser quality shale and schist products that are
quarried near the surface, the product mined by American Slate is an
ancient material, derived from deeper deposits formed hundreds of
millions of years ago.
No two pieces of our natural stone are alike: each massive stone bears
its own unique markings. Every piece reflects the personal pride of an
American Slate master craftsman and has been worked by hand to its peak
of beauty and performance. Singularity — the guarantee that every
installation will be one-of-a-kind — is the charm of natural stone
alone. It’s a quality no manufactured product can replicate and why
American Slate is the perfect medium for creating distinctive spaces.
