We are a business group with stakeholding from Italian and international investors, established in 2015 to support a new philosophy inspired by the principles of the circular economy in the ceramic sector.
Our core business is the manufacturing of high-thickness tiles for manufacturers and major Italian and international companies. We are absolutely convinced that the potentialities of porcelain stoneware are remarkable and still to be further enhanced.
That’s why we focus strongly on research and technological innovation, style and manufacturing. We encourage ongoing exploration of new ways of application and new features of a material that can play a key role within the realms of contemporary design for outdoor paving, including contexts as yet unexplored by the ceramic sector.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to apply the grounds of the circular economy in the sector of ceramic tiles, in order to trigger an upstanding process aimed at preventing materials and other resources from being consumed, or worse, squandered.
OUR PEOPLE
Pioneering soul, talent and high-level skills subject to a constant upgrade: these are the main features of our human resources, from the managerial staff, R&D operators through to hundreds of skilled labourers who work at the forefront to guarantee products with the highest quality standards.
Human values are the most important and essential heritage on which we can rely on to look to the future with trust and to give life to our projects.
We adopt these principles at different levels: from the technological-productive level, by reusing those materials deriving from municipal waste which would otherwise be destined to landfill, to the industrial-occupational level, by funnelling the production towards operational plants which had interrupted or drastically decreased their activities due to the economic crisis.
Such choice has led us to salvage 480 jobs threatenedby the crisis and to create new, skilled employment in those areas affected by occupational issues, especially in the last few years.
OUR MANUFATURING SITES
ANAGNI, ROCCASECCA AND GUALDO TADINO
Our plants are located in Anagni and Roccasecca, both in the province of Frosinone, and in Gualdo Tadino in the province of Perugia.
After a major reconversion projects, our technologically, logistically
and productively advanced plants operate at full speed, and this makes us the biggest manufacturing company involved in the production of ceramic tiles and other surfaces in Central-Southern Italy and, more broadly, outside the traditional industrial districts.
We have successfully redeveloped on an industrial and occupational level an area that is still in a critical phase.
