Porous, heat-resistant filters made from materials like alumina, silicon carbide, or zirconia. Used in metal casting, they remove impurities from molten metals, withstand high temperatures due to their open-cell, foam-like structure.

Tunnel kilns are elongated, continuously operating furnaces used in the mass production of ceramic products. Ceramics are loaded onto cars that move through different temperature zones, allowing for efficient, consistent firing.

Made from clay, feldspar, and quartz, toilet bowls are moulded and kiln-fired to create hard, non-porous, water-resistant, easy to clean, durable and sanitary products. Its strength and low water absorption is ideal for bathroom use.

Ceramics such as alumina, aluminosilicate and SiC provide high-temperature resistance, lightweight durability and corrosion resistance, enhancing engine efficiency and lifespan in extreme exhaust environments.

Ceramics are used in pizza stones for their excellent heat retention, even heat distribution and resistance to thermal shock. Their porous structure absorbs moisture from dough, producing crispier crusts and they withstand rapid temperature changes without cracking.

Good heat retention, durability, non-toxic and easy to clean make ceramic mugs the go to choice for tired parents through to students studying late at night.

Providing efficient, uniform heat emission, excellent thermal stability and rapid heating capabilities. Their resistance to oxidation and corrosion ensures long service life, making them ideal for industrial, commercial and domestic heating applications.

Hard ceramic tiles (alumina, silicon carbide, boron carbide) that fracture projectiles are backed by composites for energy absorption. They provide lightweight, multi-hit protection against armour-piercing bullets.

Essential for lining furnaces, kilns, fireplaces and other high-temperature industrial applications. It is a binding material, primarily made from calcium aluminate, designed to withstand extreme temperatures.

Refractory ceramics form honeycomb substrates in catalytic converters, providing heat resistance, mechanical strength and large surface area for catalysts. They ensure efficient gas flow, withstand harsh exhaust conditions and enable effective emissions control.

Ceramic inserts provide a hard, lightweight barrier that shatters and disperses the energy of incoming projectiles, reducing penetration and spreading impact force over a wider area, significantly increasing protection and reducing injury risk for the wearer.

Carbon-ceramic brakes combine carbon fibres with silicon carbide for superior stopping power. They offer exceptional heat resistance, reduced weight, consistent performance under extreme conditions, longer lifespan, and less brake dust.
