Its chamfered edge and riven surface gives the appearance of quarried slate and matches the performance of a machine-made slate with visual appeal.

Lower minimum pitches, unique single nail fixing and no requirement for eaves or top slates are just some of the ways in which we've enhanced their value. Designed with a riven surface and chamfered edge to give the appearance of authentic quarried slate, Saxon 10 matches this visual appeal with the convenience and performance of a machine-made slate. With a minimum pitch of 17.5 Saxon offers the design flexibility to produce roofscapes of quality and distinction. Saxon 10 is available in two vibrant, rich colours, a traditional Black and an authentic Blue. Saxon 10 Blue replicates the traditional blue-grey slate from the heart of Snowdonia whilst the Black is a good match for the black-grey slate of Scotland. Uniquely within the Redland range, these colours have a high quality paint finish, creating a strong and consistent roofscape.
