pure brick
Our production of red clay comes exclusively from bricks produced by selected kilns that set aside production not conforming for sale.
Only from a pure raw material can one obtain a surface with a uniform color without imperfections and a shade of red that makes us unique and recognizable all over the world.
CREMONINI Top layer
CREMONINI Wind-proof top layer
Obtained from top quality bricks and roof tiles, the Cremonini top layer is known as the reddest
in the market.
Same colour and mix as the standard top layer, but with a coarser particle size distribution, guaranteeing more efficient adhesion to the court surface.
CREMONINI Under-layer
Is the main component of red clay court. Unlike other commercially available materials obtained from demolition by-products, quarry and marble dust, the Cremonini under-layer is only obtained with selected bricks, roof tiles and special natural clays, enhancing its colour, compaction, water absorption and filtering.
CREMONINI Drainage ground layer
Guarantees the drainage of excess water. Through evaporation, it releases moisture to the upper layers, providing hours of autonomy before watering.
Crushed stone
Gravel drainage layer
To achieve a textbook-quality court, particular attention must be paid to its positioning, the choice of terrain, and every phase of the facility's construction. Once the work is completed, the equally vital phase of routine maintenance begins. In this section, you can review all of our expert recommendations.
How to recognize a high-quality surface?
Primarily by checking whether there are foreign elements mixed in with the red clay granules, which is a sign that the crushed bricks originate from demolition waste.
A product derived from demolition and debris causes the following issues:
Cohesion in a red clay surface represents the ability of the particles to adhere to one another. This characteristic is influenced by the composition of the red clay and the presence of clay binder. A cohesive tennis sub-base has a good ability to maintain its structure and resist particle dispersion.
Drainage refers to the ability of a soil to allow water to pass through it. Red clay with good permeability will help prevent water stagnation on the court surface. This characteristic is influenced by factors such as the grain size of the clay and the soil structure.
Elasticity refers to the ability of the ground to return to its original shape after being subjected to stress or deformation. Red clay with the right elasticity can contribute to a more comfortable playing surface for players by absorbing part of the impact during play. This characteristic can be influenced by the composition of the red clay and its ability to deform and recover its original shape.
