Italian ceramic technology in the spotlight in China

The Chinese market is showing increasing interest in Italian ceramic technology. According to initial estimates made by the Acimac Studies Centre, the China, Hong Kong and Taiwan area remained one of the most dynamic outlet markets for Italian technologies in 2011.

Italian technology is unique in its ability to turn out ceramic products with both high technical characteristics and outstanding aesthetic qualities, a combination that is vital for competing in international markets.

These characteristics, together with those of energy saving, reduction in polluting emissions and automation, make Italian technologies the only option for companies wishing to improve their product quality and production efficiency.

With this in mind, Acimac and the Italian Trade Commission ICE have once again this year organised a more than 1,000 square metre pavilion of Italian companies at Ceramics China, the biggest exhibition of ceramic technologies in Asia. The show is helding in Guangzhou, the capital of the Chinese province with the highest concentration of ceramic companies.

The companies taking part are Air Power, Bmr, Cmf Technology, Euromeccanica, Industrie Bitossi, Manfredini & Schianchi, Officine Smac, Sacmi Imola, Seedex, Setec, Siti - B&T Group, Srs-Assoprint, System and Tecnoferrari.

A number of the Italian companies at the show have participated in a technological seminar on ceramic digital decoration held on Tuesday 29 May in the exhibition centre.
