Who we are

Our history, the origins of our future

Some of the founding members, in the early 1900s.

Tassullo was founded in 1909 as a miners' cooperative, with the aim of creating opportunities for emplyment in the area, in a challengin period characterised by migration, exploiting the mineral deposits of Scaglia Rossa Trentina. The company is currently based in the area of its first mine, which dates right back to 1909.

In the period immediately following the Second World War, Tassullo became a joint stock company, thanks to growing demand for building products and post-war reconstruction. The company expanded its activity, building new furnaces to bake the Natural Hydraulic Lime and acquiring new quarries. 

The 1970s also saw the acquisition of the Società Anauniense Miniera San Romedio, which originally mined black schist, a particular form of sedimentary rock that is rich in aquatic fossil deposits and is a source of ichthyol, a substance with considerable antiseptic properties. The rising popularity of penicillin and other pharmaceutical products had caused a fall in the demand for ichthyol, and the mine was therefore converted to allow extraction of Scaglia Rossa Trentina, a highly desirable marl with a characteristic perfect balance of clay and limestone. The first industrial premixing plant for the production of plaster and mortar for the building sector was also constructed in the 1970s.

At the beginning of the 2000s, the company invested in a research project that confirmed the geological uniqueness of the old San Romedio Mine site, which lay above hundreds of hectares of the purest Dolomite rock. This marked the beginning of the deep excavation of this uncontaminated rock that, mixed as an inert substance with Natural Hydraulic Lime, characterises the high-performance range of Tassullo products.

Since 2013, in line with its brand values, the company has played a lead role in a unique project for the regeneration of spaces; Dolomite rock extraction is in fact programmed in light of circular economy, and the spaces created from mining are transformed into highly sustainable storage areas.

The period of economic crisis hit the Tassullo group heavily and had a profound influence on the story of the company.

2018 brought new life to the company, with innovative development projects in collaboration with universities and research centres, following the acquisition of the company by a solid group of investors, with the majority shareholder backed by more than 60 years' experience in the building sector.

Since 2023, also thanks to the strategic choice to channel in one unique entity the HD System and Puro Comfort Abitativo brands, Tassullo is back on the market with a new product range and a completely renewed corporate image.

The territory: where our journey begins

Tassullo has its roots in the cultural heritage of the Trentino region, which has always focused on the protection and valorisation of the environment, and on the development of local territories and economies.

This area of uncontaminated nature is where highly prestigious materials such as Scaglia Rossa Trentina and Dolomite rock are processed.

Care

We have chosen the word "care" to express our company philosophy. With the care of true artisans, we are dedicated to the production process, focusing on quality and on details; we love to take care of future generations with formulae designed for indoor well-being, and with the protection of historical architectural heritage; we have always cared for the environment, implementing processes of regeneration, exploiting renewable energy and developing sustainable and green economy projects.
Tassullo builds with care.

Innovation

The promotion of a culture of innovation, with continuous investment in skills, technology and research, characterises our system of values and our strategic vision. Every company activity and expression is oriented to the future, with the aim of designing products and systems that can anticipate market demands and offer new, efficient solutions.

Ethics

A solid company code of ethics determines the quality of our goals and of all our daily activities. Social and environmental responsibility, the valuing of the territory and a contemporary mindset that concentrates on the true needs of modern society are the main factors that make the company unique and lead it towards the future. An essential element of Tassullo's ethical value is the awareness of placing people at the centre; not only in terms of its own team, which is diversified and inclusive, but all those who come into contact with the company and its products.

Time

Time, and the traces of its relentless passage, is a challenge and an asset for Tassullo. Giving a future to historical buildings, developing products that are compatible with existing materials and producing systems that can lend strength to architectural heritage is a daily honour and duty. In designing new technologies today, consideration must be made of future generations, with a view to timeless residential well-being.

Reliability

Full control of the production process, from the extraction of raw materials to the finished product, sets us apart from other sector brands, and means that Tassullo remains efficient and solid as the construction market evolves. Our more than 100 years of experience and the know-how gained over time make us a reliable source of knowledge for the use of Natural Hydraulic Lime in the fields of construction and historical conservation.

Head-quarters

The Tassullo headquarters serve as the nucleus of the company vision; a building that is an important architectural feature of the landscape, with an aesthetic that reflects the style of Gio Ponti and takes the form of a telescope that looks out from the company's first quarry to the farthest, future, panorama.

Our certifications

Tassullo provides a wide range of mortars that are extremely easy to lay and highly workable. Our mortars are divided into 2 categories: lime mortars and cement mortars. These materials are the most commonly used binders within our products.
