Keramischer Ofenbau

After the successful start up of the first electric kiln at the Laufen plant in Austria, plans are already in place to install the next five machines at different Roca Group factories by the end of 2025.

The award recognises the outstanding international market performance achieved by the German manufacturer of high efficiency ceramic kilns.

Keramischer OFENBAU is charting a course towards the hydrogen-powered kiln of the future. Called EnerViT H2 ready, the system brings immediate energy savings and emission reductions while preparing for the future transition to 100% green hydrogen.

EnerViT firing technology by Keramischer OFENBAU combines increased outputs with a reduction of gas consumption by up to 50% in existing continuous kilns.

With the start-up of the new line in August, the Turkish sanitaryware manufacturer has reached a production capacity of 3.6 million pieces/year.
