CRIATERRA TILES
Deeply sustainable and structurally strong building solutions that can return to earth as nutrients.
Today’s building material and interior finishing industries are high-energy and resource intensive and are of the most polluting in the industrial world.
CRIATERRA creates genuinely pure eco-innovative green building materials that apply the essence of sustainability and at the same time are as strong as concrete.
CRIATERRA’s R&D was driven by the vision of products coming from dust and returning to dust as nutrients towards their next productive cycle.
Our building products are made of 100% natural elements (non-soluble mineral, plant fibres, oils, natural resins), and our self-developed technology allows the industrial scale production of a wide variety of products including bricks, tiles, dividing panels, etc. CRIATERRA’s software enables very localized production in emerging markets and remote communities.
