WHY LUDOWICI TILES

HISTORY FROM 1624 – TODAY

400 YEARS AGO
THE LUDOVISI FAMILY
The Ludovisi family of Rome, Italy began producing expertly crafted clay roof tiles. By the late 1800’s, their descendant, Carl Ludowici, used this unique form of old-world craftsmanship in a roof tile factory of his own based in Chicago, Illinois.  The popularity of his products led to the expansion of several more factories, until Ludowici was eventually consolidated into a single facility in New Lexington, Ohio.
media
1857
THE FIRM OF CARL LUDOWICI
Carl Ludowici founds the Ludowici Tileworks in Ensheim, Germany. Driven by his innovations in manufacturing, it quickly grows and eventually relocates to Jockgrim, Germany.
media
1888
CELADON TERRA COTTA COMPANY
Ludowici's American roots begin with the formation of the Celadon Terra Cotta Company in Alfred, NY. As the company grows it gains acclaim for its many durable and incredibly intricate designs and patterns of tile.
media
1893
LUDOWICI MOVES TO CHICAGO
One of Carl Ludowici's sons, Franz, travels to the United States and finds American investors to form the Ludowici Roofing Tile Company in Chicago, Illinois. They use that year's Chicago World Exposition to advertise tiles made in the German factory, and quickly gain attention for their adaptable and durable tiles.
media
1902
LUDOWICI, GA FACTORY
The Ludowici company builds a factory in the unincorporated community of Liberty City, Georgia. The community is later incorporated as the city of Ludowici, to honor the company for their local philanthropy.

media
1906

media
1909
ALFRED FACTORY BURNS
Because of the processes required in firing clay tile, fire is an ever present danger to the manufacturing facilities. The factory in Alfred, NY burns down and is never rebuilt. The company's legacy survives through the many terra cotta roofs throughout the village, and the college of ceramics at Alfred University, which the Celadon company helped form.
media
1913
LEAVING GEORGIA, LOSING CHICAGO
Over the years in Ludowici, GA over two million square feet of roofing was furnished for the government buildings in the Panama Canal Zone. After completion of most tiles for the Panama Canal Zone the Ludowici, GA factory is shut down. About a month later the Chicago Heights plant catches on fire and burns to the ground, never to be rebuilt. The company retains its main office in Chicago through the 1970s.

POTTERY
Roof tile production during World War II was minimal due to a shift in manufacturing focuses and the U.S. Economy. Factory workers at the New Lexington, Ohio plant instead produced terra cotta cookie jars to stay busy and employed. Both the New Lexington and Coffeyville plants open pottery divisions to help recover from the war. Over the next few years they produce many pieces, including the now-collectable Turnabout cookie jars for Walt Disney.

Luxury Tiles & Unbeatable Service From Start To Finish


Custom Craftsmanship
Ludowici offers tailor-made craftsmanship, ensuring each tile is handcrafted to match your unique color or architectural style. With over 50 standard designer colors and the ability to custom-match nearly any hue, the possibilities are endless.

We can even recreate several finish textures that authentically replicate the surface of age-old terra cotta tiles and create unique architectural details that take your roof to the next level.

Exceptional Quality
Our commitment to quality has made us one of the world’s most trusted sources of distinctive architectural terra cotta. Our products are crafted from 100% clay, without petroleum-based materials, sand or silica, cementitious materials, unproven synthetics, and surface sealers.

With a dedication to sustainable practices and meticulous attention to detail, we ensure that every tile meets the highest standards of excellence, guaranteeing long-lasting beauty and performance.

Minimal Maintenance
Unlike many other manufacturer’s tile products, such as concrete tiles, which require regular re-coating, painting, or chemical cleaning to ensure the longevity of their appearance and performance, Ludowici tiles require minimal maintenance.

With a 75-year guarantee on every tile, you can trust our tiles to maintain their beauty and performance without the need for frequent upkeep, giving you peace of mind for decades to come.

Timeless Color
We attribute the color retention of our products to a kiln-firing technique perfected over the last 130 years. Our tiles are fired at the extreme temperature of 2,100 degrees Fahrenheit for 24 hours to ensure the glaze has been properly fused onto the tile.

This fusing process guarantees our color will not fade over time, no matter how harsh the climate. We back our color fastness with an unrivaled 75-year warranty on every Ludowici tile.

Affordable Luxury
We provide tiles for every project, budget, and need! When comparing the life-cycle costs of our terra cotta tiles to other roofing materials, Ludowici consistently proves to be the most cost-effective option.

No matter your budget, our team will work with you to find the best tile options based on your requirements, ensuring you get the luxury look and finish you desire at a price you can afford.

There’s no need to wonder if you have all the parts and pieces that make up a beautiful Ludowici roof. Our in-house technical team will assist in determining exactly what you need for a flawless installation.

Our team is composed of engineers, ceramic engineers, and architects with vast product knowledge and industry experience to make getting you take-offs, tile identification, part drawings, modeling, or project estimates a breeze!
