Ceramic compounds

The digital transformation in ceramic companies has led to the digitization of production processes, resulting in benefits in terms of differentiation of the technical and aesthetic properties of the finished product. REMIX has adapted to market changes and new pressing technologies by introducing a new product: the REBIG industrial compounds.

READY-TO-USE

RANGING FROM 6mm TO 2cm IN THICKNESS

EXCELLENT FOR THE THROUGH-PASSING VEIN EFFECT

SELECTED RAW MATERIALS

THESE PREMIUM CERAMIC BODIES ARE COMPOSED OF SELECTED RAW MATERIALS, GROUND, WET AND ATOMIZED.

The quality of raw materials affects technical parameters such as plasticity, porosity, shrinkage, and post-firing colour of the ceramic compound. Therefore, the compounds are customized according to the specific requirements of customers.

THE PRODUCTION PROCESS IS CARRIED OUT AT THE OSTELLATO PLANT IN THE PROVINCE OF FERRARA, CAPABLE OF PRODUCING 120,000 TONNES ANNUALLY.


Types

TECHNICAL CERAMIC BODIES

Technical ceramic compounds represent high-technology applications that require technical preparation and expertise. These compounds are distinguished by their properties such as thermal resistance and mechanical strength during the glazing and firing phase of the ceramic slab.


WHITE AND EXTRA WHITE CERAMIC BODIES

Ceramic bodies can be produced in various shades of white. This result is achievable through the use of REMIX's own production REWHITE® whiteners, which allow achieving the following colorimetric parameters: L*86-94.

The integration of their whitening agents in the production of ceramic compounds allows for greater control over production and the quality of the materials used.


COLOURED BODIES

Colored ceramic compounds are compatible with each other and suitable for through-passing vein technology production.

REMIX manages this production with a sustainable approach by having multiple production cycles dedicated to different color shades. This is because no cleaning is required between one production and another, resulting in savings in time, costs, and water.

CERAMICS IMITATE NATURE: THE IMPORTANCE OF THE THROUGH-PASSING VEIN

The through-passing vein is a decorative visual effect used to give a natural and sophisticated appearance to ceramic surfaces, mimicking materials found in nature. This effect is achieved through glazes or inks that are applied to the surface of the ceramic material before firing.
