Monuments in need of renovation, necessary repair work in many places - listed buildings are often very difficult and costly to restore. This is particularly true of historic tiles. In order to preserve cultural heritage, people are often reluctant to part with centuries-old, hand-painted ceramic tiles, if the legal requirements for listed buildings allow it at all.
Custom-made products for the construction and renovation of listed buildings are one of m&r Manufaktur's core competencies. A team of experts in body and glaze development, modeling and mold making takes care of the production.
We contribute to the preservation of historical cultural assets with our expertise and the continuation of traditional craftsmanship.
When reconstructing special ceramics, shaped tiles, glazes, ornaments and decors, the surfaces, including signs of wear, can be reproduced true to the original. The “new old” tiles blend harmoniously into the overall appearance and thus ensure that the historical character of a property is preserved. Tiles in almost any shape or individual matching pieces – we deliver the perfect result for your order.
Whether large areas of a building need to be renovated or only small sections of a tiled surface need to be restored, the primary aim is always to preserve the overall historical appearance of a building. The uniqueness of our services is demonstrated in particular by the fact that damaged tiles can be reconstructed from the very first piece, while at the same time guaranteeing consistent quality regardless of the number. Even traces of use and patina can be restored, thus preserving the special nature of a historic tile.
For the individual reconstruction of a historic tile, we follow a traditional and proven approach paired with innovative technology.
Natural raw materials are sourced from our immediate neighborhood for the production of our ceramics. This protects the environment and strengthens the regional economy. Our competent contacts are located on site at the ceramic factory. We can check the quality and properties at any time and thus always obtain raw materials of the highest quality for our special ceramics.
The protection of historical monuments is synonymous with the preservation of cultural heritage and therefore a prerequisite for strengthening culture, identification and solidarity in our society. Our contribution to the preservation of cultural heritage is our passion for the continuation of traditional craftsmanship. Tradition and sustainability are at the forefront of our manufactory. We live the material in all its facets. Equipped with unparalleled expertise, we succeed in archiving a part of history.
