Testing and CE mark

Valentia Slate is entitled to use the CE mark on the construction products that it supplies. This arises from:
  1. Testing of the relevant material properties that was carried out for us by Sandberg LLP in London, a long-standing and respected laboratory.
  2. A written Factory Production Control System which allows our prospective clients to see that our production is ongoing, predictable and quality assured.

Embodied carbon and EPD

Valentia Slate has a very low embodied carbon because it is a pre-existing natural stone as opposed to a manufactured construction material. Please click the link below to download a report to Valentia Slate from Carrig Conservation International comparing the embodied carbon of natural stone and manufactured construction materials.
