Why should you buy this product?

  • BEST in Market quality Because the slate we process is pre selected, this ensures that the specification is consistent, and typically +/- 10mm of your chosen size, whereas most of our competitors send large proportions of small pieces and dust.
  • Colour The south lakes blue slate is homogenous in colour so that you get what you expect, most of the slate supplied from others has other colour inclusions such as plum.
  • Carbon Footprint Our slate comes from our quarry direct to you, which reduce the movement around the uk typical for material sourced from other companies.
  • Ethically Sourced All of our natural stone, decorative aggregates and paving products are sourced from environmentally friendly complementary partners.

Reviews

The Charcoal Slate Chippings are from Blaenau Ffestiniog in North Wales. The slate has a dark grey appearance when dry and a dark grey/ black appearance when wet, with some occasional natural brown flecks of colour.

The slate emanates from the Silurian period and is over 500 million years old. This Welsh slate is renowned for its strength, durability and colour fastness. When processed into decorative chippings, they are angular and relatively flat, which means they are ideal for gardens, paths and driveways.

The benefits of Welsh Charcoal Slate Chippings are:

  • The 20mm Slate Chippings are ideal for use as driveway chippings or parking spaces and will require minimal maintenance and the occasional top-up.
  • The geological composition of Welsh slate chippings means they are unlikely to change the PH levels of ponds or soil and are therefore suitable for planting borders and alpine and rockery gardens. This slate is also a great choice for ponds and water features and is fish-friendly (wash before use).
  • This slate has a lower carbon footprint than most other decorative aggregates sold, as we deliver direct from the quarry.

PLEASE NOTE: Bulk bags of our 20mm Welsh Slate Chippings are 850kg from Stone & Surfaces Direct (many other suppliers offer 700-800kg under the term bulk bag). With Stone & Surfaces Direct, you get 7.5 - 15% more slate chippings.
