Where is Slate-Lite produced?
The headquarters of Slate-Lite and our main warehouse are located in Rheinbach/Germany.
This is where the product was developed and where the entire business process takes place.
Our thin stone veneers are produced in India.
Naturally, we take great care to ensure good working conditions and compliance with safety regulations in our production facilities. The health of our employees is particularly important to us:
All employees in our factories must wear appropriate protective clothing - depending on the work process, this includes face masks, ear protection, safety goggles, gloves and safety shoes.
The processing of natural stone normally results in a high level of fine dust pollution.
However, thanks to Slate-Lite's innovative production method, this can be drastically reduced: As the solid blocks of slate are not chiseled or split during the production of Slate-Lite, but are stripped in layers, there is no fine dust pollution for our employees during this work step.
The process steps of sawing and grinding the slate blocks are carried out in our factories in conjunction with water and any dust that occurs is therefore directly bound. The risk of health hazards from silicosis, also known as stone dust lung, is therefore eliminated during the Slate-Lite production process!
