Pyrolave: A unique expertise in glazed lava stone

A Noble Raw Material: Volvic Lava

At Pyrolave, we work with an exceptional natural material: Volvic lava stone. Sourced from the volcanoes of Auvergne, this rock is renowned for its strength and unique aesthetic. Its use allows us to create surfaces that are simultaneously robust, stylish, and timeless.

A 100% French Artisanal Manufacturing Process

Our manufacturing process relies on precise expertise, combining tradition with high technology. Every piece of Pyrolave glazed lava is carefully crafted in our workshops located in Tarn-et-Garonne. Our skilled artisans follow several manufacturing stages:

  • Extraction and cutting of the lava: each block is selected for its quality.

  • Firing and glazing: a technique that enhances the material and allows unlimited customization.

  • Finishing and quality control: each product is inspected to ensure a flawless result.
