Why Use Terra Cotta

Boston Valley has over 40 years of unparalleled customer service and a proven commitment to the quality of architectural ceramics. Their diverse product lines include architectural terra cotta for façade restoration, high-performance building envelopes, terra cotta roof tile, TerraClad® rainscreen and sunscreen systems, as well as TerraPreCast® cladding.

 Terra cotta is an extremely durable and non-combustible material, making it the superior choice for architectural facades – structures made using terra cotta can last for hundreds of years with proper installation and maintenance. The high plasticity ratio of terra cotta allows it to be formed into a wide range of shapes and profiles; this flexibility makes the material equally well-suited for both masonry and panel applications. As a natural material mined from the earth’s clay, terra cotta does not off-gas and has an inherent through-body color range that is resistant to UV fade.

 

SUSTAINIBILITY

Sustainability and environmental preservation are deeply rooted in Boston Valley Terra Cotta’s company culture. They are innovating their fabrication processes with sustainability in mind, furthering innovation in architectural ceramics. Approximately 20-30% of their finished materials are recycled. They are continuously experimenting with recycled and environmentally friendly materials in their production process to create a new industry standard. They strive to maximize the re-use of materials, progressing towards their goal of closed-loop production.
