We are New Terracotta
Sophisticated simplicity executed in a pure manner
We are makers of handmade tiles in a human-scale factory, neither too big nor too small. We see ourselves as an artistic project blending technology craftsmanship and experimentation in an extraordinary, flexible factory where every product is made to measure.
The essence. New Terracotta is a profoundly Portuguese handmade ceramic project. The premise is simple: to merge the ancient techniques with contemporary aesthetics, offering a new dimension of the tile.

Contemporary artisans since 2014.
This family company has grown in size since its foundation in 2014 in Mortágua, when local clay was moulded by 2 artisans with simple tools in a space of a few square metres. Today, New Terracotta has a facility of more than 7,000 square metres where innovative inhouse-designed machinery help make the process a little easier. Still, it is the human touch and the passion for terracotta that ensures the quality and the soul of New Terracotta products.
