Our Story

Built on a Foundation
of Quality & Trust

From Schaumburg, Illinois — serving builders and developers across the entire United States.

Our Mission

Precision Sourcing.
Consistent Quality.

Clearelm was founded in 2020 with one goal: to close the gap between world-class tile manufacturing and the U.S. construction market. We import and distribute premium ceramic, porcelain, and stone tile products — connecting American builders with global manufacturing excellence, at prices that make sense for large-scale projects.

Based in Schaumburg, Illinois, we operate as both manufacturer and importer, giving us direct control over product quality, lead times, and pricing. Our relationships with manufacturers like VitrA, Kaleseramik, and Schlüter Systems mean our clients receive products that meet the highest international standards — backed by our team's hands-on expertise.

Why Clearelm

What Sets Us Apart

🏭
Direct Manufacturing Relationships

We work directly with factories — not middlemen. This means shorter lead times, quality control at the source, and pricing that reflects actual production costs.

📐
Custom Tile Orders

Need a specific size, finish, or color that isn't in our catalog? We can manufacture to your exact specifications — ideal for signature projects with unique design requirements.

🤝
B2B-First Service

We're built for the trade. Volume pricing, project accounts, specification support, and a responsive sales team that understands what contractors and developers actually need.

🌎
Global Sourcing, American Delivery

Our products are sourced from leading manufacturers in Turkey, Europe, and Asia — then shipped reliably to all 48 contiguous U.S. states with trusted logistics partners.

Certified Quality Standards

Every product line we carry meets or exceeds applicable ANSI and international quality standards. We stand behind what we sell.

💬
Responsive, Expert Support

Our team is available Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 7 PM CT — ready to answer specification questions, check lead times, and help you choose the right product for your project.
