Ransbach-Baumbach – The need for restoration of historical buildings is still increasing. And they are also trendy: faience tiles and historical pottery. In the field of monument conservation, it is important to preserve the original character of the architectural monuments. This usually involves the faithful reproduction of very old architectural ceramics. The demands on the design and the surface are high.

Almost every order is a custom design. We drive this to the perfect result. A team of experts in mass and glaze engineering, modelling and mould making runs the manufacturing process.
