Suitable for underfloor heating: Yes

This characterful slate/quartzite has rich earthy tones, with shades of copper, grey, sage green and amber, and undertones of mauve and pink. Despite having a honed, smooth finish, the natural veins, layering and seams of the slate are evident throughout the stone to give the illusion of a riven tile. The Metallic Blend Slate has a slight shimmer from the quartz and speckles of grey within the stone, making these tiles beautiful and truly unique. This distinctive slate would make a great feature floor in a kitchen, conservatory, hallway or even bathroom. 

If you are looking to make a dramatic feature of your floor, slate tiles are an excellent option. The Brazilian Black or Green Slates work well as a contrast in rooms with lots of natural light, or the multi-colours of the Peacock Slate are a fantastic feature against a plain, simple kitchen. Slate is one of the most affordable types of stone flooring, making this timeless classic a suitable choice if on a budget.
