KLINKER COVADONGA Founded in 1886 1886 Founding of La Covadonga: factory manufacturing facing bricks, hollow bricks and ceramic vaults. La Covadonga Our history is that of a family that changed perspectives, landscapes and looks, manufacturing a material with which the facades that have given homes to thousands of families would be built or which accompany us daily with every move. Since our origin, we have made over 200 different brick models complementing our offer with the design and manufacture of more than 1,200 special shapes. Our journey began in 1886, manufacturing facing bricks, hollow bricks and ceramic vaults. The family company reached mid 20th century with a change in productive model becoming the first company in the sector to manufacture coloured glazed facing brick: this new technique was a revolution, changing the classic colour of bricks and permitting a choice of new colours to be used in the construction of facades. 1990 Presentation of 100% Klinker facing brick. 1999 New product: Klinker clay paver. 2015 First project supplied to United States of America. 1957 Manufacture of coloured glazed facing bricks; La Covadonga pioneers this technique. 1995 Manufacture of rustic Klinker bricks commences. 2003 Expansion into international markets: first commercial delegations in different European countries. 2017 First project supplied to Australia.
