Durability

Ceramic and porcelain products last a lifetime and can be passed on from generation to generation. Tableware made of this material does not age and can be washed and sanitised daily without showing signs of wear or deterioration over time.

Reuse

Despite its fragile appearance, Italian ceramic is a tough and durable material and is designed to withstand intensive daily use. If handled properly, ceramic tableware will last a lifetime.

Health

After each use, a simple dishwasher cycle based on HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points) regulations sanitises all ceramic and porcelain tableware for domestic or food service applications. 

Safety

Porcelain and ceramic tableware comply with stringent European legislation on food contact products and guarantees consumer health and safety. The manufacturing process results in smooth, non-porous surfaces that do not absorb grease, odors or bacteria and do not alter the taste of food. 

Recyclability

Ceramic and porcelain tableware can be recycled as an inert material at the end of its life cycle, for which purpose it should be taken to a recycle centre.

Sustainability

All stages of Italian ceramic tableware production follow the principles of the circular economy. Modern facilities are able to recover part of the energy used and to reuse almost all wastewater deriving from production processes. 

Innovation

Waste materials that cannot be recycled internally during the production cycle can be used in other sectors. The growing attention to environmental issues has led to the development of new circular economy solutions capable of recovering ceramic production waste for use in new applications.
