TERRAFINA — Finest Portuguese Stoneware

Terrafina is rooted in the knowledge and craftsmanship of Ceramirupe Cerâmicas (est. 1987). From its home in Castanheira, a village in the historic county of Cós about 10 km north of Alcobaça, the brand blends skilled local artisanship with advanced technology to create practical and ornamental stoneware that sets the standard for quality.

Materials & Standards

Performance

• Porcelain-grade density: High-density stoneware engineered with porcelain-like properties for outstanding strength and durability.
• Minimal water absorption: Virtually impermeable, with a water-absorption rate of 0.5%–1.5%.
• Food safety: Vitrified during production; chemically inert and safe for all food-contact applications.
• Superior quality: Crafted from premium raw materials, carefully sourced and processed under strict quality control for long-lasting performance and refined aesthetics.

Sustainability

• Efficient production: Designed to integrate with Ceramirupe’s production technologies and handcrafted techniques, Ceramirupe Prime Stoneware enhances operational efficiency and significantly reduces energy consumption.
• Reusing production surplus: Solid and liquid by-products are reintegrated into new pieces, closing the loop and eliminating waste.
• Resource preservation: Combining high-quality raw materials with by-product reuse reduces the need for mineral extraction and helps protect natural resources.
• Circular economy: Broken pieces are recycled into new products—such as ceramic floor tiles—giving materials a second life.
