About TREND Group

TREND: It’s more than a name, it’s a mission.

The word “TREND” indicates a direction in which change is moving. It requires a certain passion for being on the cutting edge.  Since the company was founded in 2000, TREND Group has earned a reputation as the forerunner of market research, new trends and product development.  As one of the world’s leading producers of color glass mosaic, Venetian enamel, gold leaf tesserae and engineered stone surfaces, TREND Group has demonstrated a unique ability to synthesize the essential principles of Italian tradition with the dynamic creativity of today’s most celebrated designers, architects and artists.

The Group has embraced this opportunity globally, artfully fusing the nineteenth century alchemy of its Orsoni Venezia 1888 furnace in Venice with the twenty-first century innovations of its engineered agglomerate manufacturing plant in Sebring, Florida.  With production and assembly facilities on four continents and operations in more than fifty countries, TREND is currently distributing over 1.5 million square meters of glass mosaic tile and 800,000 square meters of agglomerate surfaces per year.

Born with style.

The leadership of TREND Group has worked to assure that the company’s commercial soul is shaped by a deep commitment to environmental awareness and cultural influences. The company moved eagerly and aggressively to reduce the ecological impact of its processes and products.  Production is designed to consume fewer raw materials and energy resources, to recycle otherwise wasted materials, and to increase the natural durability of its inventive applications.

OUR HISTORY

TREND: Respecting a tradition of innovation

With a lifetime of experience in manufacturing premium quality glass and tile, Dr. Pino Bisazza and Andrea Di Giuseppe brought together their most passionate and committed colleagues to The TREND Group in 2000.  These visionary business leaders have built a company with more than 700 employees across the globe, creating a legacy that meshes Italian artistic tradition, respect for the earth’s resources, and the innovative technologies of the modern world.

The TREND Group symbol has long been a stylized cactus, an icon representing the fertility of TREND’s creativity in even the most arid terrain. It is an emblem of perseverance in challenging times and of deeply rooted commitments that make innovation a true lever, capable of moving the market.

Promoting Culture.

The Group is firmly rooted in the artistic integrity of its Venetian glass foundry, the Orsoni Venezia 1888 furnace. Our centuries-old materials take their place alongside the most advanced production at the Group’s manufacturing facility in Sebring, Florida, which provides engineered agglomerates to TREND’s discriminating network of dealers and its growing international franchise system of Granite & Trend Transformations showrooms.
