Our surfacing minerals

Slate Flakes

We transform shale extracted from our quarries into slate flakes of different grain sizes and different colors.

Granules

We use locally sourced hornfels, a type of metamorphic rock, to create our granulated products, which will then be used to surface bitumen shingles.

Sands

Our colored sands are designed for application on metal roof tiles. Their small particle size facilitates their application on smooth surfaces.

Powders

Our powders are a result of the valorization of our by-products. They can be used as filler products in numerous formulations.

The applications of our minerals

Covering and Waterproofing

Surfacing minerals can be used for waterproofing and as insulation products, thereby ensuring the roof’s aesthetic appeal.

Material Filler Products

Obtained from by-products, filler minerals are intended as an addition to other industrial ingredients.

Slate Mulch

Made from shale extracted from our quarries, decorative mulch is intended for application on landscaped gardens.
