If a tile doesn’t turn out right, we grind it back into dust, add water and make a new one out of it.

If a field tile is rejected, we will save it to be cut down to a smaller size for a future order.

Whenever possible, we try to collect glaze overspray to reuse.

We wrap our field tile in post consumer recycled paper and biodegradable packing peanuts.

Our Nashville location means we are able to ship from coast to coast using less fuel.

Any clay that is contaminated (like from the dirt on our shoes) is collected for a local gardening company to be used in landscaping.
