These buildings are just a few examples of the many structures constructed using Vermont green slate, proving its longevity, beauty and weather resistance whilst protecting these beloved buildings. It has also been approved on specific English Heritage projects, Crown Estates, and several National Parks.

High-Quality Vermont Green Slate

Vermont Structural Unfading Green is markedly different to other green slates from the North East of America in several important ways. First, it is all produced from a block extracted from a single family-owned & run quarry, and the raw block is then cut in the production sheds to ensure that the slates are made “on the grain”. This dramatically improves the finished roofing slate’s strength, longevity and workability.
