Ceramic manufacturing requires high-purity, low-impurity minerals with specific thermal and chemical properties. Gimpex is a key supplier of essential raw materials in the production of tiles, sanitaryware, tableware, flat glass, and specialty glass products.
We supply high-quality minerals essential to ceramic manufacturing and advanced technical ceramics. Clay serves as the base material, offering plasticity and formability for shaping tiles, sanitaryware, and tableware. Feldspar acts as a flux, lowering the melting point and helping form a glassy phase during firing, which improves strength and finish. Quartz adds rigidity, thermal stability, and resistance to deformation during firing. Bentonite is used as a binder to enhance green strength and moldability in ceramic body formulations. Cenosphere, with its hollow structure and low density, is used in lightweight ceramic composites and insulating refractories for thermal efficiency.
Our mineral solutions support consistency, durability, and performance across both traditional and advanced ceramic applications.
