SUSTAINABILITY & OUR PRODUCTION

At Mateus, sustainability is rooted in a passion for craftsmanship, timeless design, and full transparency. We believe in openness throughout the entire value chain to create products made to last and be passed down through generations. That is why we regularly visit our factories to ensure the highest standards of quality, fair working conditions, and responsible production practices.

THE CLAY & THE CRAFT

At the heart of our business is human craftsmanship and the selection of natural raw materials. Our ceramics are crafted by experienced artisans who blend traditional pottery techniques with modern design. Every piece is made and painted by hand, making each item truly unique with its own distinct variations in form and glaze.

FROM RAW MATERIAL TO FINISHED CERAMICS

Our primary raw material is natural clay, which is shaped and refined through carefully controlled processes. After shaping, each piece is hand-painted by experienced artisans before being fired at high temperatures to achieve a durable and long-lasting finish.

Because every detail is crafted by hand, creating each piece in our collections requires time, care, and exceptional precision. The result is authentic craftsmanship that turns every meal into a beautifully set moment.

SUSTAINABLE  PRODUCTS

Mateus take great care to make sustainable choices in every step of the production. Perhaps the most important one in the long term is about design. You may fall in love with a single perfect cup or a beautiful set of tableware. Whatever is your favorite, you can always add others to create your own personal Mateus collection. There are no rules and no limitations because all new products from Mateus are designed to match existing collections. Loving and using them everyday is sustainable in a longer perspective - for you, your loved ones and for generations to come.

RESPONSIBLE PRODUCTION & QUALITY

It is essential to us that our production respects both people and the environment. We work exclusively with long-term partners who share our commitment to sustainability, good working conditions, and a reduced environmental footprint.

By combining sustainable raw materials, timeless design, and rigorous quality control, we create ceramics designed to be used and cherished every day - year after year.
