Argile du Velay

About Us

"Argile du Velay's journey with clay began way back in 1980 when Socodis, our mother company was created. Socodis was established to sell clay products, not only in France but also across Europe. Socodis imported dry clay in bulk from Africa and Spain, then packaged and distributed clay throughout Europe. Thanks to their growing success, business expanded and the team's expertise about the rich benefits and diverse uses for clay increased."
