Biemme is an Italian company specialising in materials and systems for the construction sector, founded in 1983 by Piergiovanni Biagiotti (still chairman today). The company began with the production and distribution of closed-cell expanded polyethylene under the trade name Polirex, then followed Fioccotex (non-woven fabric/geotextile in polyester or polypropylene, mechanically needled without adhesives or binders) — a pioneering position in which Biemme claims to have been a forerunner. The core product that established quality leadership: the Glasstex fibre glass mesh family (fibre glass mesh with alkali-resistant coating for plaster, cement and screed reinforcement, external insulation composite systems, marble reinforcement and mosaic support). ISO certification: ISO 9001/UNI EN ISO 9001. Glasstex products are certified by national and international research institutes. Presence across Europe. Headquarters: Italy.
