CIOT LEGNO
BY CIOT
Every company has a story to tell and ours is a love story which transcends through three generations
In 1950, Giovanni Battista Ciot founded the company in an office building on Saint-Laurent boulevard where it still operates to this day. In the beginning, Ciot specialized in production of terrazzo and installation products Giovanni’s eldest daughter, Margaret, worked alongside her father
In 1967, Joe Panzera, a client of Ciot, took over the reins and began diversifying the products and services offered thus rejuvenating the enterprise. Joe and Margaret married soon after and had two daughters to whom they passed down their passion for innovation and renovation Today, this new generation is ushering in a new era for Ciot.
For the past fifty years, our product selection has constantly evolved and offers an impressive array of natural stone, ceramic, plumbing accessories and most recently, hardwood floors Additionally, we offer custom mosaics and exclusive services for architects and designers. Ciot is constantly at the cutting-edge of the latest trends.
Ciot is an undisputed industry leader. Present more than ever in the market with its eight locations in Canada and the United States, the business has recently unveiled its latest store concept in Atlanta in October 2019.
Ciot’s future is undeniably bright.

PBR: PHYSICALLY BASED RENDERING
BringingSurfaces toLife
In today’s fast-moving world of architecture and interior design, clients expect more than static moodboards or simple sketches They want to see their future spaces come alive before making decisions. That’s where Physically Based Rendering (PBR) becomes a game-changer especially in flooring and surface design
For professionals, PBR isn’t just a technical upgrade it’s a strategic tool: Better Presentations – Show clients ultra-realistic renderings that inspire confidence in their investment.
Time Savings – Quickly test different finishes, plank orientations, or colors digitally before committing samples
Global Collaboration – Share projects with teams or clients remotely while ensuring everyone sees materials as they truly are.
Trend Responsiveness – With new textures available weekly, designers can stay ahead of evolving styles and palettes

TheFutureofRealistic Design
Unlike flat, generic textures, PBR captures the way real materials interact with light Whether it’s morning sun, soft afternoon glow, or evening ambiance, PBR textures adapt seamlessly. For designers and architects, this means photorealistic renderings that show clients exactly how a surface will look in real life
At Ciot Legno, we ’ ve built a library of high-resolution PBR textures—up to 16K quality designed to replicate the richness of our wood collections These files are fully compatible with SketchUp, CAD, VR/AR platforms, and rendering engines like V-Ray or Enscape

Fascination and respect for nature have always been at the core of Ciot' s product selection
Luxury is in the details
Ciot Legno brings to your home the best the forest has to offer
For over 50 years, we have travelled the world's quarries to find treasures hidden deep in the mountains We are continuously amazed at the eons of natural history recorded in every slab of precious stone and marble
We strive to unearth the most exclusive and unique natural products, and this time, it' s deep in the forest that we have fallen in love with one of nature's most beautiful and noble materials: WOOD
Very much like natural stone, every layer and coloration of wood is a testimony to the passage of time which makes every tree unique
Long driven to find the most exclusive stone products, we now pour the same passion into wood, researching its history and provenance We seek the utmost quality, the richest colors and the most exquisite finishes the world's best artisans can produce.
