MANUFACTURE

The manufacturing process, in the factory, requires four phases:

SAWING

The slate is cut into regular-sized blocks using diamond disc saws.

SPLITTING

This is the most important operation in the process. It is done by hand to obtain plates of slate by splitting, taking advantage of the natural divisions in the rock.

CUTTING

With this operation the final formats of the slate are obtained.

SELECTION AND PACKING

Before packing, the slate is selected and classified. It is then packed on wooden pallets by hand. Once closed, the pallets are marked with the commercial name, number of pieces, commercial reference, etc.
