Understanding Ceramic Tiles & Slabs when Specifying forSustainability



We are excited to share with you our latest paper: "Understanding Ceramic Tiles & Slabs when Specifying for Sustainability". This comprehensive document offers a deep dive into the benefits and sustainability of ceramic materials, particularly porcelain tiles, under the rigorous standards of ISO 17889-1 certification.

The international standard ISO 17889-1 "Ceramic tiling systems - Sustainability for ceramic tiles and installation materials" has set a new benchmark in the industry. It provides a clear, objective method for assessing the sustainability impacts of ceramic tiles across their entire lifecycle—from raw material selection to final disposal.

In this paper, you will learn about:

  • The critical role of sustainable materials in modern building designs.

  • The stringent requirements of ISO 17889-1 and how our European collections exceed these standards.

  • The substantial environmental, social, and economic advantages of choosing certified porcelain tiles.

  • Insights into the production processes that enhance energy efficiency and reduce industrial impact, spotlighting innovations such as the methane-fueled co-generator and regenerative thermal oxidizer systems.
