Community Testimonials

Fireclay Tile is currently benefiting from a NMTC project for our Aromas, CA factory. This is allowing us to grow our US manufacturing, hire more local employees, and compete more successfully with foreign imports, which represent the vast majority of tile consumed in the US. Without NMTC, the project would not have been possible.
