Grits
Grits are ceramic application materials obtained by the mechanical breaking of frits. A wide range of references is commercialized to provide ceramic surfaces with the desired aesthetic and technical characteristics. They are prepared in different standardized granulometries depending on the desired ceramic effect and the application method, which can be either dry or wet.
The ESMALTES grits are specially designed to obtain a wide color development of the digital inks and to obtain ceramic surfaces with a high resistance to chemical agents and abrasion.
Within this range of products we have a great variety in terms of granulometry and type of ceramic effects produced. Our grits are grouped in the following families:
FAMILY G2
Intermediate granulometry. Allows both dry and wet application. We have products in a wide range of melting temperature and thus can be used in porous single firing, stoneware and porcelain stoneware.
Granulometric range (mm): 0,350-0,118.
TYPES:
– Matt and gloss (transparent and opaque).
– Lustres (silver and gold)
– Reactive
FAMILY G4
Of smaller granulometry. Allows both dry and wet application, especially for airless and filera. We have a wide variety for different temperature ranges.
Granulometric range (mm): 0,141-0,066.
TYPES:
– Matt and gloss (transparent and opaque).
– Lustres (silver and gold)
– Reactive
ULTRAFINE GRITS FAMILY (UF)
The ultrafine particle size is the characteristic that provides novel glossy, satin or matte effects in ceramic floor and wall tiles.
Granulometric range (mm): <0.066.
TYPES:
– Matt and gloss (transparent and opaque).
– Lustres (silver and gold)
– Reactive
FULL POLISHED (FP) GRITS
Full Polished (HF) grits are a technical product developed to achieve high gloss finishes on ceramic surfaces subjected to a mechanical surfaces subjected to a mechanical polishing process after firing. Its main characteristic is its transparency, excellent chromatic development of the injection inks and lower internal porosity.
METALLIC GRANILLA
Metallic glaze is a mixture of our G4 family of glazes that provides a metallic effect to ceramic surfaces. ceramic surfaces. This effect is suitable for many types of designs such as oxides, veneers and natural stones. With this The full range of shades of metallic surfaces can be achieved with this product.
