Abstract: This article searches a contribution to actualize on firms networking theme existing on Academy nowadays. Its objective is to propose a classification typology to firm network. This typology comes from bibliographical research and from three clusters studied of ceramic tile industry, two on Brazil and one in Spain. The proposition links the clusters to four indicators: directionality; localization; formalization and power. Methodological proceedings were survey to CEOs; and supporting institutions; and bibliographical research. Results have shown each network specificity and its distance to more appropriate cluster according to typology. This work showed differences among networks such, in the same industry and country, two networks can be similar and singular at the same time. Also, using a network as reference, it was possible analyzing other networks to this one according to its characteristics. This proposition makes a contribution to network classification beyond directionality and formalization axis.
