SSQ Natural Slate

Cladding stone isn’t just about curb appeal — it’s protection that lasts. In Ireland, builders’ merchant MacBlair made headlines by becoming the first to offer Riverstone external cladding — a stunning and incredibly durable phyllite stone from Argentina, supplied by SSQ.

When it comes to selecting natural roofing slate the choice of supplier can be between a flawless finish and long-term issues. At SSQ, we’ve built our reputation as a leading slate distributor — through exclusive quarry partnerships and strict quality control at every stage.

Del Carmen is a premium natural slate, extracted from a single, consistent vein in Spain—renowned for its remarkable quality and reliability. Its rich blue-black tone and exceptional durability make it a trusted choice for heritage and high-spec roofing projects worldwide.

Proud to showcase Del Carmen and Riverstone cladding at a distinguished property in Burton, Neston. This project exemplifies timeless elegance and durability, enhancing the home's architectural appeal. #CladdingExcellence #ArchitecturalDesign #BuildingMaterials #BurtonNeston
