What’s Behind the Beauty is Genius
DaVinci Single-Width Slate roofing tiles are constructed of a composite material made of pure virgin resins, UV and thermal stabilizers as well as a highly-specialized fire retardant. The result is a premium roofing tile that gives us the greatest degree of color control and consistency in the manufacturing process. And you end up with a product that endures beautifully in any climate. Natural slate tiles can’t compete.
