IBL CELEBRATES 60 YEARS OF BUSINESS
Founded in Bentivoglio (BO) in 1964, Industria Bolognese Laterizi (IBL) is celebrating sixty years of growth and innovation along with a strong focus on craftsmanship. After acquiring Fornace di Cotignola (RA), the company has solidified its status as a major player in the Italian brick industry. In 1996, it became part of the Dafin Group, a robust Italian industrial holding company owned by the D’Agostino family which also owns other international construction materials companies such as Tagina Ceramiche Spa. IBL successfully combines traditional techniques with modern practices to deliver durable, aesthetically pleasing and environmentally friendly products.
In recent years, IBL has adopted innovative multi-exit dies supplied by Tecnofiliere and expanded its product range to include seismic loadbearing blocks, infill blocks and partition blocks. The two companies have worked together for about 30 years and have a trusting, collaborative relationship aimed at the design and development of new structural clay products.
