Italcer has entered into an agreement with Del Conca USA to expand its presence in the American ceramic tile market. The forecast is to increase production by two million square meters, to be added to the current twenty million. This is a strategic commercial partnership between two of the most prominent actors in the Italian ceramic industry. Del Conca USA is the American subsidiary of the Del Conca Group (which is located in San Clemente, Rimini). Italcer, situated in Rubiera, in the region of Reggio Emilia, has effectively scaled the market since 2017, becoming Italy's third-largest manufacturer, with a turnover of €340 million in 2024, with exports accounting for 80%. "We are establishing a presence in the United States as a result of this partnership with one of the most prominent American ceramic companies", states Graziano Verdi, CEO of Italcer. The Del Conca USA plant in Tennessee, which has been active since 2014, is set to grow. The collaboration will enable Italcer to create new high-end collections tailored specifically to the United States. While the Del Conca Group will continue to manufacture collections under the "designed in Italy, made in USA" label.
