NETWORKING ACTIVITIES

LIFE  SANITSER: The project aims to revise the production pr
ocess in the Vitreous Sanitary Ware (VSW) ceramic sector by introducing relevant amounts of glass cullet waste from urban waste disposal in the ceramic blends formulations.

SILIFE: The main objective of this new project consists of producing commercial quartz powders that show very little or no RCS toxicity.

VIEW THE PROJECT

“The combination of these different wastes enables the production of innovative ceramic tiles with similar or improved mechanical properties respect to the traditional ones.”
