HANDCRAFTED IN NASHVILLE, TN

Considering the environment in the production of our tile not only gives us a warm fuzzy feeling, but it's also good sound business.

We can’t recycle all of our glaze because having true color is important to us, but if we can, we will collect our over spray, add water and glaze more tile.

Scrap clay, contaminated from the stuff on our shoes,
is collected for a local gardening company
that uses it for landscaping.

All clay is recycled! If a tile doesn’t come out of the mold right, we grind it back into dust, add water and
make a new one out of it. To go one step further, scrap clay is held in used barley bags from local brewing company, Yazoo. (Try Dos Perros, it's our favorite!)

Red Rock is centrally located in Nashville, TN. In turn, our location provides us with less shipping costs and fuel usage than our coastal counterparts. Being in Tennessee, we do experience all four season, so in winter the kilns provide the tileworks with heat and in the summer the open air truck docks and fans provide our cool.

All sales order confirmations and invoices are done electronically. This not only cuts down on our printer cartridge and paper use, but the energy used to mail the envelopes is completely eliminated.

When we do have to print, we use solid ink technology, which means no toner cartridges, less waste, fewer CO2 emissions, and it's non-toxic.

Our efforts in reducing our environmental footprint are so effective, we don't touch our dumpster, and only need a residential size trash barrel!

Ninety-five percent of our equipment is either used or fashioned from old material. We love salvaging stuff that might have ended up on its way to the landfill and giving it new purpose for our tile making needs! For example, an old shower pan now serves as a spray booth collection pan, and bread trays from a local burger joint are used for tile storage trays.

Everyday we are coming up with new ways to reduce, reuse and recycle.

Red Rock prides itself on being a green place to work and a green product to buy!
