Marketing - Advertising / Public Relations / whirlpool / spa / hot tub
English term or phrase: composite slate
From a brochure about whirlpools /spas, technical info:

"Our cabinets are 3⁄4 inch cedar with corner supports
and pressure-treated bottom rails. Or select vinyl or premium composite Slate (in Desert, Mountain styles). Available dual-density foam filling adds strength and insulation."

Composite slate klingt nach einem Verbundstoff, in Verbindung mit Schiefer war meine Suche jedoch erfolglos. Kennt sich jemand aus?

Ganz herzlichen Dank im Voraus!

Kunstschiefer, Schiefer aus Verbundwerkstoff
Explanation:
Ich denke, dass composite slate als "slate made from composite material" zu verstehen ist. Vielleicht kann es ein englischer Fach-Muttersprachler bestätigen, aber alle Internetseiten, die ich mir angesehen habe, deuten darauf hin, dass meine Vermutung zutrifft.
