Frequently Asked Questions
How does natural slate compare to manufactured “black stone” veneer?
Natural slate offers superior durability, authentic color that won’t fade, and zero VOC emissions. Unlike manufactured products that try to replicate the look, our panels provide the genuine texture and character that only real stone can, enhancing long-term value and premium positioning.
What is the benefit of the GREENGUARD Gold certification for my business?
This certification allows you to confidently specify our product for sensitive projects like schools, healthcare facilities, and high-end homes where indoor air quality is a major concern. It is a powerful selling point that differentiates you from competitors.
How much faster is the panel installation compared to loose stone?
Professional installers report labor time savings of up to 60%. A project that might take a mason 3 days with loose stone can often be completed in a single day with our panel system, dramatically reducing on-site labor costs.
Can these panels be used around a wood-burning or gas fireplace?
Absolutely. The Class A Fire Rating is the highest available and certifies the material as non-combustible and safe for use on fireplace surrounds, meeting stringent U.S. building codes.
Do you provide corner pieces for this product?
Yes, we manufacture pre-fabricated “L” shaped corner pieces that ensure a seamless, professional finish for outside corners, eliminating the need for difficult miter cuts on site.
What are the logistics of ordering a mixed container?
You can combine Premium Black Slate panels with our other products (like Golden Honey Quartzite, tiles, etc.) in a single container. Our logistics team will help you create an order that optimizes space and shipping costs, reducing your inventory risk.
