Last but not least, the cutting edge can be reworked with a hammer, similar to natural material. In contrast to natural slate, you don't have to worry about breaking off pieces of plastic. You can also step on these shingles without any problems. A single plastic shingle weighs only up to about 480 grams, depending on the design. Moreover, heat and sound insulation works just as well as with natural material. Our plastic shingles are also insensitive to moss. Therefore, their appearance is preserved for a long time.
