An innovative interpretation of the production process has lead to development of machinery that breaks new grounds. The production system is characterised by a high level of automation and the process takes place with a considerable reduction of dust, noise and emissions. Kerlite laminated stoneware is made using the same "families" of raw materials that are used for conventional porcelain stoneware tiles: clay, kaolin and feldspar. However for the production process, innovative and patented pressing, decorating and firing systems are employed.
The production process is highly automated. Each stage is controlled by process supervisors; semi-finished and finished products are handled by laser guided vehicles. All technology employed does not create mud and waste water that needs to the treated. The consumption of energy - basically electric - is particularly low.
These systems reduce the impact on the environment, thanks to the extremely low emissions of CO2 and other harmful gases and to reduction of dust that is let out into the environment.
