Smalticeram has become the 37th patron to join the group of companies and organisations that make up the Board of Trustees of the Universitat Jaume I-Business Foundation (FUE-UJI). The formal act of accession took place at the headquarters of the FUE-UJI in the presence of Eva Alcón, Rector of the Universitat Jaume I and President of the FUE-UJI; Fernando Tomás, Managing Director of Smalticeram; and the Executive President of the Foundation, Carlos Cabrera.

The Rector of the UJI and President of the FUE-UJI, Eva Alcón, pointed out that "the inclusion of Smalticeram in the Board of Trustees gives us a new opportunity to recognise the strategic importance of the ceramics sector for the UJI" and thanked them for their confidence in the Universitat Jaume I as "the ideal ecosystem for specialised training, research and innovation, with the capacity to generate added value and improve competitiveness".

"These events highlight the value of the joint effort between the public university and the productive sectors. Even more so in a context such as the current one, when we have to respond to global challenges such as the green transition and digital transformation", said Alcón, who added that "with this adhesion, Smalticeram also takes another step forward in its strategy of social responsibility and commitment to training and young talent as a means of innovation".

During the meeting, Fernando Tomás expressed how proud Smalticeram was to join the Board of Trustees and how it could make a positive contribution to the growth and development of the company, which is currently concentrating most of its investments in Spain.  
Tomás also stressed the need to put the knowledge and research offered by the University at the service of society. For his part, Carlos Cabrera expressed his satisfaction with "what it means for the Foundation to incorporate Smalticeram, with whom we share the importance of promoting quality training to raise skills and meet the needs of the productive system, as well as promoting research and business innovation, always with the aim of improving competitiveness and with the University as an ally".

**About Smalticeram**

Smalticeram is a leading company in the production of glazes, grits and ceramic pigments. Next year it will celebrate 25 years since it was founded in the province of Castelló. Since its beginnings, the company has been closely linked to the town of Onda, where it has a plant with a total surface area of 130,000 m², of which 50,000 m² is dedicated to the manufacture of materials for the ceramic industry.  
Thanks to a clear strategic vision and efficient management, Smalticeram decided to consolidate its production at the Onda site, while other competitors opted to outsource their production units. This decision has allowed the company to supply various export markets, maintaining its global competitiveness and reaching more than 30 countries from Onda.

Today, Smalticeram España has a team of more than 130 people and has experienced sustained growth, constantly adapting to market changes and offering innovative and sustainable solutions to the ceramics industry. Last year, Smalticeram inaugurated the largest ceramic granules production plant in Spain, thus confirming its commitment to continuous improvement and operational excellence.
