installers in 2018
Efforts to stop nuisance
calls will threaten jobs. A stronger UK presence
at the German trade fair. Consumers ditch new
‘Lego estates’ for refurbs. Robot trucks and
factory-built homes.
LIGHT WORK
SLATE ROOF
Eurocell is always planning new ways to help trade customers deliver a better job.
The latest is SlateSkin
-a sheet tiling system that
allows installers to fit a real-
istic slate-effect, water-resist-
ant system to Equinox con-
servatory roofs in around
50% less time.
It’s a way of finishing the
job beautifully and pro-
viding customers with an
attractive, hard-wearing roof
that will stay looking good
for 25 years and beyond.
SlateSkin takes conveni-
ence to new heights when it
comes to adding a beautiful
and durable finishing touch
to building projects.

finished faster
SlateSkin is specially
designed to help installers
stay ahead of schedule when
they’re up on the roof. With
multiple tile courses built
into each sheet, the system
reduces the time and hassle
spent positioning and nailing
tiles with no compromise on
build quality or aesthetics.
It also makes light work
of roofing with loads less
carrying and handling re-
quired.
Eurocell says next gener-
ation SlateSkin and Equinox
create the most advanced
system currently available.
SlateSkin GRP system’s
lightweight construction
allows the roof pitch to be
set anywhere from just 5o
to 35o. SlateSkin is the only
tile system tested down to
a 5o pitch and so is ideal
for lean-to projects, which
comprise up to a quarter of
all UK conservatories.
Guaranteed for 25 years,
the SlateSkin sheet-tiling
system can typically save
two operatives a whole day
when compared to fitting
Tapco tiles. When combined
with the Equinox system, it
meets the requirements of
BS 476 Part 3:2004 for the
External Fire Performance
of Roofs, the classification
for fire penetration.
Using the technical sup-
port that Eurocell provides,
installers can be sure of get-
ting the right fit first time,
every time. Once they have
received all the dimensions,
Eurocell engineers will cre-
ate all components required,
including the tile sheets, hip
end caps and ridge and hip
top cap using state-of-the-
art equipment.
SlateSkin is just the latest
complementary product
developed for the Equinox
roofing system, which fea-
tures solid insulation panels
integrated in the structure
for superb thermal effi-
ciency – approximately ten
times better than an ‘A’ rated
window.
