Lafaure is a family business that has been in existence for four generations. The company is located in the south-west of France and currently employs about forty employees. It has had its own clay quarry for over 30 years. Its extraction site and production site are close by. We pre-dry the clay in the sun and we guarantee not to use any physical or chemical treatment that could distort the quality of our clay. We are constantly looking for new properties on our clay. That is why we carry out tests on volunteers and in vitro.
