Earth and clays have been used in construction throughout the ages. These products of nature were adapted by combining elements, such as pigments and minerals, to develop the first wall coatings. Through human ability and creative genius, structures were transformed into warm, enjoyable living spaces.

Throughout the Mediterranean Plate, minerals such as quartz and kaolinite are at the origin of the ochreous earth. As for the range of colors, it remains today something of a mystery of nature, a process of evolution within the hills over millions of years.

The colors of the region are so rich and intense they have been a source of inspiration for many artists. They are the colors of the earth, the sky, the flowers, and the sea, brilliantly illuminated like nowhere else in the world.

Terramed is a natural ochre plaster made of clays from the Mediterranean basin combined with sand and cellulose. Cellulose is added in order to slow the drying process and bind the clay and sand together. One is able to achieve an effect that is not only beautiful but durable as well. There are no chemicals added. Only natural pigments made from elements extracted from quarries around Provence are added to enhance some of the naturally colored clays. Terramed is entirely authentic, environmentally sound and non-toxic.

Terramed is available in 12 colors popular in Mediterranian interiors. It can be used for residential, commercial, or health care facilities, but is intended for indoor use only. Terramed comes in a dry form and combines with water. In a single process, Terramed is applied with a trowel over a primed substrate to a desired texture.
