Producers of natural hydraulic lime since 1897
History of Vilca and the Villaga brand
Villaga®, a brand previously owned by Vilca S.p.A. and now part of Fassa S.r.l., has been making lime since 1897. It all started with the construction of a kiln for the production of lump quicklime at the site in Villaga (Vicenza province), a venture that was an immediate success due to the purity of the limestone used and the accurate processing.
In the 1950s, the plants were expanded with the construction of new kilns and the production line for processing natural hydraulic lime.
From lime producer to an internationally-recognised brand
Villaga® continues to operate nationally and internationally as a professional and efficient producer of lime, satisfying a multitude of demands from a diversified customer base, acquired in over a century of environmentally-friendly production.
In January 2022 Vilca S.p.A. was merged into Fassa S.r.l., a historic producer of premixes for building, aggregates, lime and specifically NHL Natural Hydraulic Lime. Over the years there have been improvements in production plants and technological innovation in response to growing demand for high quality products from an increasingly specialised and globalised market.
