Around 450 to 470 million years in the making, Trigal Natural Slates are sourced from a quarry, high in the red mountains in North West Spain, neat the valley of the “del Valerona” or “ Valley of Gold”. Named after the nearby traditional Spanish village of Trigal, each slate is carefully crafted from sediment laid down by nature alone – back when the earth was young – in the Geological period know as ‘Ordovicico Medio’

|
| Ancient and Modern |
|
Modern quarrying techniques and machinery dovetail with the specific skills and craftsmanship involved in creating each individual natural slate – a uniquely finished product that quite simply slides into a class of its own.
|
|
| Definitely Different |
|
Just as each slate is unique, every home, dwelling or property roofed with Trigal Natural Slate takes on a look of its own.
|
Definitely stylish, Definitely Spanish, Definitely only from Slate Sales Ireland.

| Long Term Investment |

An investment in building is an investment in the future. Cutting corners by using cheaper alternatives more often than not will lead to failure or sub-standards.
