Our Ethos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Up until early 2020 we only sold products that were made in Wales and in turn, mainly supporting small local businesses.  Since then, we have branched out to UK made and UK designed and are only working with businesses who have the same ethos and beliefs as ourselves.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whilst the majority of our products are made in Wales, some of our suppliers products are mainly handmade in the UK or designed in the UK with materials sourced sustainably from outside of the UK<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carbon Footprint<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our Welsh slate travels only 130 miles from Snowdonia.    At Slate House it\u2019s not only our products that we want to be eco-friendly, but our staff too.  To strive for sustainable living, we offer our team a car share scheme with a monetary bonus to reduce the amount of cars used to travel to work.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also encourage working from home whenever possible.  This May we were proud to start a cycle to work scheme.  Want to find out more about educating yourselves and others? Take a look at the United Nations<\/a> goals to help transform our world and protect our planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Slate House started in 2007, Kevin Thomas wanted the company to be eco-friendly and materials to be sourced locally providing a low carbon footprint.  From day 1 Kevin knew that not only do the products need to be natural but also packaging must be recyclable.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
