Iran a country which has been associated with ancient history and civilization in the arts and industry and has rich reserves of raw materials from the long time ago has been mentioned, as the appropriate bedding for the tile and ceramic industry, and it is possible to refer to the history of this ancient art to the inscribed insignia of Susa to the Achaemenid palace.

This industry was developed further in terms of quality and quantity after Islam. Iranian architects used tiles first in combination with bricks in the views, and in the meantime, with the achievement of mosaic tile technology, adobe tile (seven colors) added to the use of this material.

This technology reached to its apogee in the SAFAVID dynasty era and aroused the splendor of color and light connection in many of the buildings. In this era, the variegation, reflection, and imagery of the tiled surfaces extended new concepts to the space of Iranian life, and happiness, spirituality, and light contributed to the city’s face.

Porcelain brick

Tiles are still valuable and beautiful, but in today’s Iran, the influence of non-indigenous architecture has made tile work, as a traditional element, unable to find a proper link with modern architecture. The use of tiles in contemporary buildings is limited only to religious buildings and monuments that insist on pretending to be traditional. And thus, this old technology remains away of the presence in architectural and urban spaces.

Accordingly, Alborz Ceramic Company, on the basis of its technical knowledge and artistic creativity, began a new effort to revive this original art in the ceramic industry. Its valuable experiences in producing high quality mosaic ceramics and exporting it to many European, Asian and African countries have provided the groundwork for the production of a new product called “porcelain brick” in the field of the building facade industry. Studies on this product began in 2013. In the following, the technical and artistic specifications of the product were determined by the formation of a unit named “Atelier Alborz Unit” and was produced with a variety of colors and dimensions. It is hoped that with the ever-increasing development of proposed designs, while securing consumers` demands, we will take an effective step towards linking to cultural assets with the architecture of this realm.
