Fornace
Ballatore
Cav. Giuseppe Ballatore, founder of the company and still
Company Chairman today, decided to produce handmade bricks
in order to offer his customers an alternative to the industrial
products available, which leave little scope for architectural
inspiration and creativity. Tradition and quality are the
watchwords that characterise the creation of Fornace Ballatore
products.
The company moved to new premises in Villanova d'Asti in
1980 and it is here that tradition and new technology combine
to enable Fornace Ballatore to offer their customers over
500 types of bricks and tiles made in series, selected from
a collection of more than 1000 types of original moulds.
Our bricks faithfully reproduce antique elements, and meticulous
searches for the same types of clay and attention to the
use of traditional production techniques enable faithful
reconstruction, where necessary, or the birth of a brand
new architectonic jewel which will successfully stand the
test of time.
The
evolution of modern architecture has continued to prioritise
the use of bricks for various reasons: chromatic warmth,
which differs depending on the type of clay used, countless
forms, centuries of life, as well as natural heat and sound
proofing, and the absence of maintenance after installation
are just some of the qualities that Fornace Ballatore bricks
offer to those who use them.
Fornace Ballatore bricks are available in a range of colours:
red, pink and brown. In addition to standard bricks, Fornace
Ballatore also produces items made to measure, sample or
design.
