NeXclad is the next generation of economical, small-format terracotta wall cladding products from Ludowici & Terreal North America. Manufactured in Southeast Ohio at the Ludowici Roof Tile plant from locally sourced raw materials, this small module terracotta tile comes standard with a 75-year material and color warranty.  From the early design stages, through a quick and simple approval and ordering process – our NeXclad tiles can get on site faster with reduced lead times in comparison to other terracotta cladding materials.
