For over 60 years, Florim Stone puts unwavering passion and determination into creating new beauty and innovation in the category of ceramic tiles and slabs, while paying great attention to sustainability.

  Omar Joudeh Export Sales Manager, ASOR S.R.L and Severio Lauria, Sales Manager, Florim Ceramiche S.p.A uncover informative insights into the luxury Italian brand.

Describe the materials used to create a FLORIM stone product.

Florim Stone slabs consist of a natural blend of high-quality clays and mineral colours. They combine the main advantages of sintered surfaces (product resistant to wear, stains, scratches, high temperatures, UV rays, atmospheric stress, completely waterproof, hygienic, and easy to clean) with the accurate appearance of natural stone, of marble, concrete or oxidised metal.

How important is sustainability for the company and what measures are taken to respect the environment?

Florim’s general approach to sustainability intersects with our corporate strategy, not as an abstract concept but as concrete actions that embrace the three areas of responsibility: economic, social, and environmental. In 2020 Florim became the first producer of these materials in the world to obtain B Corp certification, formally declaring its commitment to operate not only for profit but also for the good of the planet and the community.

For Florim, acting responsibly means developing and manufacturing a top-quality and sustainable product. Acting responsibly also means protecting the environment by improving processes and products to reduce environmental and energy impact.
