The paving in the historical centers of cities such as Assisi, Spoleto, Montepulciano and Certaldo, to mention the most famous ones, are in Cotto Il Ferrone, a material which blends perfectly with the attractive shades of the original colors
Exceptional quality clay used to manufacture Sestino and Tozzetto donate to the bricks superior mechanical strength with frost resistance characteristics.
The bricks are used for interior paving and exterior paving as well as for interior facing and exterior facing, in modern architectural projects requiring continuity with tradition and new architectural design.
The thick bricks are heavy duty load compression and are used for paving streets, piazza squares, promenades for private cars & trucks traffic passage. The technical properties as frost resistant, abrasion resistant, UV resistant and pH resistant make them high quality material
