The Spanish slate industry is the undisputed market leader in natural slate production, with 90% of the slate sold in the world quarried in Spain. The leading Spanish natural slate manufacturer is Cupa, which has more than a century of quarrying experience. Its global importance and leadership are reflected by the fact that one in every four slates used in roofing around the world, is crafted by Cupa.
Slate is a timeless classic which makes Cupa Natural Slate a suitable choice for new build, residential and commercial projects. It is also regularly specified throughout the UK for projects within conservation areas, national parks, heritage sites and areas of outstanding natural beauty as an acceptable replacement to indigenous slate as it has a similiar composition and is of comparable quality.
