BRANDS

All for one

Quality, innovation, and a fully Italian production process converge within our four brands:

Performance, design, versatility.

The careful development of design, colors and finishes is transformed, thanks to cutting-edge technologies, into collections with elegant and versatile aesthetics, capable of interpreting projects and living styles to the fullest while preserving their value over time.

Abitare la ceramica: for a new idea of home.

Ceramics become the scenario to accommodate real-life situations to be built around the home. The relationship with space is strengthened through direct contact with ceramic surfaces designed to convey new living meanings.

Two souls, one brand: ermesaurelia.

Past, present, future. Three dimensions of time merge to create ermesaurelia’s unique and instantly recognisable identity. Expressing the heritage of tradition with a contemporary angle, the brand of today designs for tomorrow.

Frassinoro, the brand stronglysustainability-oriented, dedicatedto the BtoB market.

Constant technological innovation in sustainable product development, combined with attention to trends in architecture and interior desing, lead to the creation of high-quality ceramic collections with reduced environmental impact, to give style to living spaces.
