Escofet
Founded in Barcelona in 1886, Escofet began as a manufacturer of cement tiles for architectural application and has since evolved into a world design leader in the innovation of urban elements. The group works closely with designers to create the highest quality cast concrete, wood, metal, and high-density polyethylene site furnishings. It has a long tradition of collaboration with elite architects and artists from Antoni Gaudí and Joan Miró, to Ricardo Bofill, Arata Izozaki, Jean Nouvel and Richard Rogers. Today, Escofet is at the forefront of the movement for urban transformation, developing solutions that energize, beautify and enhance the usability of public outdoor space.
