Oct 02, 2004

02/10/04 - A sense of optimism can be felt amongst the stands at Tecnargilla, the most important showcase of technological innovation in the ceramic and brick industries currently under way in Rimini.

Large numbers of visitors, most notably foreigners from Asia, the Middle East, Europe and South America, thronged the stands during the first day of the show and are expected to stay on in Rimini for the next few days. The Italian visitors are anticipated to arrive at the weekend after finishing their own work as exhibitors at Cersaie in Bologna.

A large number (more than 90) brick and tile producers attended yesterday afternoon’s conference organised by Andil-Assolaterizi and Acimac, which explored the latest developments in legislation on the environment, seismic standards and energy saving, while the guided tours of five of the leading Italian brickworks are now fully booked.

Great satisfaction was also expressed by the approximately fifty exhibitors and the forty Russian and Indian ceramic manufacturers who have organised meetings in cooperation with the Italian Trade Commission.
