    Michael,
    GBA's product guide lists two brands of synthetic slate roofing: EuroSlate synthetic slates and Infinity Roof System synthetic slates.

    I have no idea whether these products are durable.

    The GBA product guide also lists suppliers of natural slate.

    GBA also lists a wide variety of other roofing products in our product guide.

    You might also be interested in reading an article on the topic posted on the Fine Homebuilding website: “This faux slate may be worth a closer look.” If you visit this page, be sure to read the posted comments.
