In a new initiative, Cembrit, the roof slate and cladding specialist, has announced that it will be linking up with Eco Roofing Services in the south-east region. The new partnership will be focused on promoting the advantages of green roofing solutions featuring Cembrit’s Eastern White cedar shingles and natural slate products.

“Sustainable roofing solutions are a growing trend with good reason,” explains Gary Dowd, Regional Sales Manager at Cembrit. “Teaming up with a passionate advocate of sustainable roofing such as Eco Roofing Services is the perfect fit for us. We are pleased to be associated with a leading company in this field. There is the additional advantage of their excellent facilities that gives us the opportunity to prominently display key products to delegates attending events at their premises.”

Kevin Nelson, Director at Eco Roofing Services adds: “I have been trading with Cembrit for over twenty years, so for me this a comfortable fit. Both companies are forward thinking in promoting sustainable products and Cembrit’s Eastern White cedar shingles fill an obvious gap in our offering. I’m looking forward to long-term and mutually beneficial relationship.”
