From fired ceramic surfaces to functional fillers, kaolin supports the properties manufacturers need in both production and finished products.
Explore ApplicationsDifferent industries ask different things of kaolin. The conversation may begin with fired whiteness and plasticity, or with dispersion, smoothness, stiffness and process stability.
Ceramic manufacturing relies on raw materials that behave predictably during forming, drying and firing.
Kaolin supports forming characteristics, fired whiteness, green strength and a refined finished surface.
Tableware · Electrical porcelain · Technical ceramics · Ceramic components
Selected kaolin can support surface quality, dimensional stability and controlled performance through firing.
Wall tiles · Floor tiles · Vitrified tiles · Glazed tiles
Plasticity, casting behaviour and fired appearance are central to strong, smooth sanitaryware products.
Wash basins · Water closets · Urinals · Bathroom products
Levigated kaolin contributes to suspension stability, whiteness, glaze consistency and surface finish.
Tiles · Sanitaryware · Tableware · Porcelain · Decorative ceramics
In coatings, paper, polymers and construction products, kaolin works as a functional mineral that can influence appearance, processing and physical performance.
