Our Mission
From day one, the company’s ambitions extended far beyond simply making and selling products. It
wanted to create ‘The Best’ complete solution – a lifestyle, an aura and a world of sensations that would
connect with and grace the lives of customers who expect nothing less than the best.

Originality By Design
At the heart of GEMMA for the past quarter of a century has been a flair for original, contemporary, life-
enhancing design. The company’s design schemes are versatile and adaptable, sensitive to international
trends, yet influenced by the rich decorative traditions of the region and the distinctive textures of the
natural world.

Investing In Growth – Driven By Technology

For a quarter of a century, investment in cutting-edge technologies has been the driving force behind
GEMMA’s advancements in design, innovation and production capacity. It has made the company the
leading manufacturer of high-end ceramic and porcelain tiles in the Middle East – and a respected design
pioneer on the world stage.

Building A Worldwide Reputation

GEMMA upholds its international profile by exhibiting at the world’s leading interior design exhibitions.
Only the world’s foremost producers are invited to attend prestigious trade fairs such as Cersaie in
Bologna and Cevisama in Valencia. Here the most influential manufacturers, architects and designers
come together to share inspiration and expertise, and to sample the very best in interior design from
around the globe.
GEMMA has exhibited at Cersaie since the early nineties, with its presence growing exponentially
throughout the years – an expansion that reflects GEMMA’s growing reputation on the global stage.

GEMMA’s export story began in 1992 with its first-ever overseas shipment taking tiles to Russia, Ukraine
and the wider Middle-East. Today, GEMMA is recognized as an internationally important ceramics
producer and supplier, with a market penetration that reflects the trust clients have in the quality of its
products and the reliability of its delivery services.
