Milestone — Sustainable American PorcelainMilestone — Sustainable American Porcelain
B Corp Certified. Nine Carbon Neutral Collections. 100% Regionally Sourced Raw Materials. The Future of American Tile Manufacturing.
American Manufacturing, Italian HeritageAmerican Manufacturing, Italian Heritage
Milestone is the flagship brand of Florim USA, the American subsidiary of the Florim Group — one of the world's largest porcelain tile manufacturers, headquartered in Sassuolo, Italy. When Florim decided to bring its manufacturing expertise to American soil, it didn't build a satellite operation — it built one of the most advanced porcelain production facilities in North America, investing over $150 million in Clarksville, Tennessee.
What sets Milestone apart is a commitment to domestic manufacturing with a genuinely sustainable approach that goes well beyond marketing rhetoric. 100% of raw materials are regionally sourced — supporting local industries and dramatically reducing transportation-related carbon emissions. The factory operates with pre-consumer recycled content of up to 45%. Nine collections are certified carbon neutral. All products hold Green Squared and Greenguard Gold certifications. And in 2025, Florim USA earned B Corp Certification — one of very few tile manufacturers globally to achieve this distinction.
The Milestone range spans marble, stone, wood, and concrete looks — from the award-winning Earthen collection (Architectural Record's 2025 Flooring Product of the Year) to the Untamed series designed in collaboration with American designers. All products comply with the Build America, Buy America (BABA) Act, making them ideal for federally funded projects. Baystone is proud to offer the complete Milestone range to the Bay Area.
