Cembrit Blunn Ltd - Range of fibre cement slates on offer from Cembrit Blunn

Cembrit Blunn, specialist in natural and fibre cement slates, has created a brand new series of five technical data sheets for high quality fibre cement slates. The datasheets are available free to roofing specifiers, stockists and installers by calling 0208 301 8900 or visiting www.cembritblunn.co.uk.
The five types of fibre cement slate are available in a total of seven colours and form part of the company’s comprehensive range of premium roofing slates for the UK market. The technical datasheets contain inspirational photographs, fixing recommendations, sitework guidance and comprehensive technical data which, if followed, will give a problem free project.
Westerland slate is available in blue-black, graphite and welsh blue and has an appearance very close to that of natural slate. Its riven surface and natural dressed edges make it an ideal solution for situations where a traditional appearance is important. Alternatively, blue-black Zeeland slate offers a riven surface with clean square edges and, like other slates in the fibre cement range, are vermin and rot proof whilst an acrylic coating reduces potential growth of moss and lichen.
Cembrit Blunn’s Jutland slate offers the greatest colour choice with graphite, blue-black, russet and autumn brown and comes in three sizes, all available in this flat, square edged slate. Moorland slate is a distinctive blue-black and is manufactured with a smooth surface and dressed edge to give the appearance of a natural slate from floor level, whilst retaining all the fixing benefits of man-made slate. The fifth and final slate is the Diamond slate, available in blue-black, russet or brown. Reminiscent of the original ‘red diamond’ slates, the Diamond range is ideal for the specifier or contractor working on refurbishment projects as the finished effect supplies a ‘retro’ feel whilst recreating the original appearance.
“Cembrit Blunn’s fibre cement slate range is the ideal solution for specifiers looking for a man-made slate that has the appearance of natural slate,” says Ged Ferris, Marketing Manager at Cembrit Blunn. “Fibre cement slates are cost effective, lightweight, and do not require grading and sorting. They are suitable for all types of commercial and residential project and are particularly popular for re-refurbishment of 19th century properties. Cembrit Blunn has a fibre cement slate for every taste and budget.”
Each slate in the fibre cement range is pre-holed to offer a consistent size, weight and thickness, ensuring regularity and simplicity when fixing. Fibre cement slates from Cembrit Blunn are manufactured using Portland cement together with a non-asbestos formulation of blended synthetic and cellulose fibres. Each slate is pigmented during production and fully compressed. They are then finished with a high quality, semi-matt acrylic coloured coating to the top face and edges, and a clear binder to the back face.
Using skills built up over 80 years, Cembrit Blunn select natural slate from Spain, Canada, Brazil, China, India and the countries of Western Europe. From UK quarries Cembrit®Blunn offer Welsh, Cornish and Westmorland slates. Quality levels at Group factories are rigorously maintained to high standards with fibre cement slates produced to BS EN 492:2004 and manufactured under the control of a BS EN ISO 9001: 2000 quality management system. Cembrit Blunn is a member of the Dansk Eternit Holding A/S Group of Denmark, one of Europe’s major building material producers of fibre reinforced cement products for the roofing and cladding industry. The ultimate parent company FL Smidth this year celebrates its 125 year anniversary.
