Slate -better choice in kitchens

Slate

Slate is a fine-grained rock which reveals a textured and rustic appearance. A traditional use of slate was the laboratory table top in chemistry labs. That application alone should serve as a great testimonial to the chemical resistance of the materials. Slate tiles are non-porous and much more stain resistant, making it a better choice in kitchens.  Slate Tiles are available in a great variety of hues, generally in darker colors such as shades of black and gray, maroons, rusts and greens. Slate makes an excellent exterior material.
