The latest interior design trends are seeing an increasingly close connection between the various rooms in the home, and the bathroom too is becoming a place of experimentation and openness

The heat island effect contributes to global warming and has a significant impact on quality of life in metropolitan areas. So-called “cool materials” help reduce heat emissions by altering the solar reflectance and thermal emissivity of urban surfaces. Thanks to their intrinsic properties, ceramic surfaces fall naturally into this “cool materials” category.

Collaboration between the worlds of fashion and ceramics resulted in a fusion of style and modernity that reached the height of its success during the 1980s

Italian ceramic tableware is a sustainable and healthy choice. Thanks to its properties, ceramic guarantees optimal performance throughout its entire life cycle and is particularly suitable for uses that involve contact with foodstuffs. Drawing from the country’s long ceramic tradition, Italian manufacturers deliver high-performance products that are ideal for domestic and food service applications.

The 2022/2023 ceramic tile trends hold up a mirror to our times and reveal a very different world to the one that came before it, a world shaped by the new social behaviours, patterns of consumption and working practices that established themselves during the pandemic. Without doubt, we are living in an age of ceaseless transformation

Today, Italian ceramic companies are able to self-produce a significant portion of the energy needed for their industrial processes. The use of cogeneration is a solution that also contributes to...

Confindustria Ceramica, on behalf of Italian ceramic tile producer companies, has signed an agreement with the Emilia-Romagna regional government to reduce the industry’s emissions.

Structural clay products have been used since antiquity. They have reliable characteristics and are particularly suitable for use in contemporary green building projects. Their natural characteristics can help to reduce the environmental impact and improve the energy efficiency of buildings.

The Italian ceramic tile industry is working to integrate photovoltaic technology into ceramic tiles in order to develop a cladding material that will be capable of reducing the energy consumption of buildings and optimising the exchange of heat between the interior and exterior. The first prototypes have shown promising results for use in the most innovative green building projects.

Italian ceramic tiles inhibit the proliferation of germs and bacteria and avoid the wastage of water for everyday cleaning.
