Valentia
Valentia is now available in three colours with the latest additions being Welsh Blue and Highland Black.
Welsh Blue replicates the traditional blue-grey slate from the heart of Snowdonia whilst Highland Black is a good match for the black-grey slate of Scotland.
Uniquely within the Redland range, these colours have a high quality paint finish creating a strong and consistent roofscape.
Designed with a riven surface and chamfered edge to give the appearance of authentic quarried slate, Valentia matches this visual appeal with the convenience and performance of a machine-made slate. With a minimum pitch of 25º Valentia offers the design flexibility to produce roofscapes of quality and distinction.

Natural slate is probably the best roofing material in the world and has been used by man for thousands of years. Not only will good quality slate outlast other roofing materials, but when fitted properly, it will frequently outlive the lifetime of its building. The lively market for second hand slates bears this out.
Slate retains its colour and although it may weather with age, it will not fade. It is also an environmentally sound product, as it is quarried from a natural source rather than manufactured using industrial processes. In addition, it is non combustible and is compatible with all other building materials. A slate roof is easily maintained, making it an economical choice, and it is available in a variety of sizes, colours and textures.
