Envirotile Synthetic Slate Half Tiles
Half size tile reduces cost and wastage!
Lightweight and virtually unbreakable half tile with natural slate finish, for initiating a weatherproof broken bond, finishing the verge, and for detailing around abutments or flashings. Features the 8Fix system that fits quickly and securely.
Envirotile tiles interlock with adjacent and under tiles to form a more secure integrated roof covering, and uses a reduced lap that can require just 12 tiles per square metre; so reduces weight, material cost and work. Reduced weight means cheaper transportation, reduced CO² transport emissions and less structural roof requirement. Being easy to work with and approximately 50% the weight of other synthetic tiles, makes Envirotile the perfect choice for creating an authentic looking conservatory roof conversion.
