The very high and unparalleled quality of the tiles, in all lines and accessories, gives PERKUS the title of premium brand.
The PERKUS tiles are manufactured with microgranulated clay and shaped in presses of high compaction capacity. The great resistance to bending and low water absorption are the result of the mono-burning process in roller kilns, with temperatures above 1,150 ºC , which also guarantees a high quality product and pieces without variations in tonality and size.

Besides, the r. casagrande group has as its mission to offer technical and innovative solutions in ceramic products, providing improvement in the quality of life, valuing customers, collaborators and external resources.
When we talk about international level ceramic production, naturally Italian technology and design comes to mind, which reminds us of sophistication, quality and superior performance. All these qualifications are present in PERKUS products, which employs the most modern technology to manufacture semi-gloss, glazed, and natural ceramic tiles.
The history of reference to quality and design started in the post-war period (1950’s), when the Italians began to apply in large scale several materials such as plastics, rubbers, acrylics, fabrics, metals and ceramics capable of making any product functional and at the same time aesthetically differentiated. This raised the “Italian product” to another level, creating objects of desire around the world, such as the Ferrari, Fendi, Benelli, Ferreti, Salvatore Ferragamo, MV Agusta, and Giorgio Armani brands, among many others.
This constant search for innovation, combined with functional performance and excellent aesthetic finish always guided the group r. casagrande, of Italian origin, to transform its ventures in Brazil, adding the best of Italian technology and design, with the strength and determination of Brazilian professionals to develop reference tiles in Brazil, consolidating itself as the largest national manufacturer in the segment.
