For two hundred years, taking part in the heritage
of ceramics of Vietri sul Mare, thanks families' love
of ceramic artists, the Antiche
Fornaci D'Agostino has always produced beautiful
ceramics sustaining, since the beginning of the 1800's,
a process of industrialization of Vietri ceramic techniques
of workmanship.
Since 1993, thanks to the research and technological
innovation of the De Maio family, the Antiche Fornaci
D'Agostino started to specialize in the industrial production
of a special material named Magmaker®, which
is made up of a mixture of volcanic lapilli from Vesuvio
and ceramic clay.
This exclusive support, that undergoes a long firing
period at 1200 degrees Celsius, determines the particular
resistance of these products, which are ideal for floors,
indoor and outdoor, being resistant to freezing temperatures
and acidic substances. They maintain a hand-made look,
thanks to the glazes, which are applied using techniques,
studied in the research laboratory of this factory.
