Ceramic Tile Process:

All the contents are mixed together with water to produce a slurry which is then dried and crushed into a powder. The powder is fed into tile presses which compress the tiles to the required shape, which are then fired in a kiln. Glazing is then applied to the tile and then the tile is re-fired to over 1000οC. The tiles are then inspected and any tiles with blemishes rejected for reprocessing, (this is an ideal point at which used tiles can join the rejects for recycling).Tiles are then packed and ready for dispatch to the wholesalers.
