Italian ceramic technology, the world leader in terms of innovation and automation, will be present for the very first time at CICEE, the Chinese exhibition of technologies and materials for the ceramic industry to be held from 30 May to 2 June 2019.

Coordinated by Acimac, a total of 24 internationally-renowned Italian companies will occupy an entire 10,000 sq.m hall (Hall 4) and will showcase the most advanced ceramic manufacturing technologies: Air Power, Appel, BMR, Cami, Certech (Annica), Cielle, Durst, Esmalglass-Itaca, Hob Certech, ICF Welko, LB, Manfredini e Schianchi, Mectiles, Poppi, Sacmi, SITI B&T, Smac, Stylgraph, System Ceramics, Tecnoferrari, Tecnografica, Tekmak, Torrecid and Zanasi (Annica).

Visitors to the Association’s stand will also be able to pick up a special Chinese language issue of the magazine Ceramic World Review covering a range of topics including digital solutions, sustainability and large surfaces.

Amongst the initiatives held by companies in the Italian Lounge, LB will be organising a conference at 3:30 pm on 30 May entitled Tile Design Limitless. The event will focus specifically on full-body porcelain tile and will explore the many different aspects of this highly versatile architectural material, from production technologies through to technical and aesthetic characteristics.
