Most of the world’s ceramic tiles use an industrial, energy-consuming process called spray drying to prepare the raw materials.
The Skip Tile is different because it uses an innovative process: the traditional energy-consuming spray drying is skipped, and a unique low-energy dry granulation process is used instead. This reduces CO2 emissions by over 50%, compared to the average traditional producer.
Our partner Alusid is the result of a research project at the University of Central Lancashire to explore ways in which waste and low-value materials destined for landfill could be repurposed into beautiful, versatile surface materials.
