Argelith's history
Know-how since 1870

In times when markets grow more and more complex, we increasingly look
for orientation: Experience and tradition give us the good feeling that
we make a decision in favour of a certain product or a company. That is where Argelith makes a start. Since 1870 we have already been manufacturing ceramic products at our location in Wehrendorf. It was always our aim to supply our customers with highest quality. So we swam against the stream in the middle of the sixties: With the thin tile, the ceramic industry changed to mass production and covered most of that time's needs. But Argelith did it differently. We specialized in the manufacturing of ceramic tiles and stoneware from a thickness of 5/8" upwards, as the industry was in need of ceramic floors being able to withstand heavy loads. Our ceramic clinker tiles totally matched this need. This decision set new standards. Again and again, we brought all production areas technically up to date. That's how we were always able to offer the high-quality tiles to the market. And in the course of time, this requirement for quality succeeded. End of the nineties, the market asked more and more for fully vitrified tiles with a thickness from 1/2" upwards. Therefore Argelith decided in 2001 to raise Europe's most advanced stoneware factory for these thicknesses. We never were sorry about this step, because our tradition makes us feel obligated to produce innovative tiles coming up to the needs of the market under the name Argelith. You can rely on us keeping these standards in the future. |
