Since 1921, the founding year in Montelupo Fiorentino (FI), until today, the Colorobbia Group has continued to be a reliable and stable point of reference for the ceramics industry.
The numerous milestones throughout its history are testimony to the growth and affirmation of Colorobbia both in Italy and abroad.
The first step toward internationalisation took place in the early ‘70s with the opening of Colorobbia Brasil. The following years bore witness to a process of continuous expansion until reaching the current total of 29 companies.
