Slate: Black is beautiful - Thüringer Schiefer.
According to this motto, slate has been considered a proven natural stone material for fireproof roofing and wall coverings for centuries. The quarrying and processing of slate in the Thuringian Slate Mountains, mainly in the region around Lehesten/County of Saalfeld, has a tradition that goes back to the Middle Ages. Nowadays, we produce slate products for the roofing membrane industry as well as for gardening and landscaping in our quarry Schmiedebach.
