Inspire Roofing Innovative Slate Technology

Built To Last

Every aspect of Tapco Slate is designed to give professional contractors all the innovations they need. Constructed from an environmentally friendly, 100% recyclable blend of dolomitic limestone and resins using compression, rather than injection moulding, creates a proprietary "camber effect" called InFlex™. This camber effect ensures a tight surface bond
against wind and rain.This process also provides the ultimate protection against UV rays,
hail and fire.
Tapco Slate is a premium product with premium performance, offering beauty that is built to last, the highest performance and fire-proof ratings and a transferable 50-Year limited warranty.

Please note that custom pitches are available for ridge caps, please contact us for information:
