Thanks to her recognized and sought-after work, she has established a bond of trust with architects, craftsmen, builders and decorating enthusiasts alike.

Terracotta, a durable material

Made from natural raw materials extracted from local quarries, terracotta is a quality material that offers many advantages. It is made in France, in our brickworks, from sand and clay, and requires little processing, which means it has a low environmental footprint. It adapts to every need, for the aesthetic finish that’s right for you.

Terracotta is also a natural, local material that lasts a very long time. Its FDES classification indicates a lifespan of 100 years (maximum permissible).

Help beautify and insulate facades

Terracotta cladding is an ideal choice for personalizing a facade and giving it a unique character. It’s the finishing touch to any construction or renovation project. It allows you to enjoy the authentic look of hand-molded brick with minimal thickness.

It’s also a technically attractive product, since terracotta is a durable and easy-to-maintain material. Terracotta cladding boards can be used for external thermal insulation (ETI), particularly on timber-frame and timber-frame facades. For specific structures such as chimneys, refractory clay bricks can be used.

Rairies-Montrieux, a living heritage company

Thanks to its unique, traditional know-how, Rairies Montrieux has been recognized as a Living Heritage Company (EPV) since 2006. This official label is awarded by the French government, under the authority of the Ministry of the Economy and Finance, to French companies that stand out for their excellent craftsmanship and industrial skills.

A company committed to reducing its carbon footprint

For many years now, Rairies Montrieux has been making environmentally-friendly production choices and constantly seeking to modernize in order to limit its carbon footprint.

The manufacturer uses biomass boilers in its plants, and favors the use of reclaimed wood for cooking or natural drying, thus keeping fossil fuel consumption to a minimum. Electric ovens are only used during off-peak hours. Lastly, the acquisition of a new gas furnace has enabled us to reduce consumption by 50% compared with the previous furnace.

But the clay brickworks don’t stop there to protect the environment. Numerous investments are planned in the short term to reduce its carbon footprint. A new filter for the plant’s chimney has been installed, the roof of a workshop will be completely re-roofed with photovoltaic panels, and a new packaging system is being installed, enabling us to reorganize our teams and optimize company operations without cutting jobs.
