Paver manufacturer Escofet y Fortuny, Sociedad Colectiva, founded by Jaume Escofet. Later became Escofet y Tejero. Awarded the 1888 Barcelona World Trade Fair Gold Medal.

Catalan modernism hydraulic tiles manufactured by Escofet in conjunction with renowned architects like Lluís Domènech i Montaner and Alexandre de Riquer. The most outstanding example is Antoni Gaudí's Hexagonal Tile for the Batlló House building interiors. An adaptation of this model was used 90 years later to pave Barcelona's Paseo de Gracia.

Escofet enters the streetscape sector with the production of ‘panots’ for Barcelona's pedestrian pavements, marking the start of its close relationship with the city's public spaces.

Escofet brings vibropressed cast stone to Spain with the production several automatically produced models that prove ideal for indoor and outdoor use. The company's presence in Barcelona is consolidated with several high-profile pavements including the Ramblas, designed by Adolfo Florensa in 1968.

Escofet enters the building sector with its reinforced cast stone wall panels, generating a series of design and technical skills for prefabricated construction components.

Escofet's range of street furniture starts with the collection of modular benches by Ramón Benedito and Josep Lluscà. In 1987, the range is expanded with a new collection by leading Spanish architects, co-ordinated by Xavier Güell: Jaume Bach, Gabi Mora, Óscar Tusquets, Elías Torres, José Antonio Martínez-Lapeña, Josep Lluís Canosa, Albert Viaplana and Hélio Piñón. They are soon joined by other teams including Enric Sòria and Jordi Garcés, Antonio Cruz and Antonio Ortiz.
