As part of Sicer’s ongoing research into new materials, this innovative formula is capable of further enhancing the tactile sensation of ceramic surfaces.
To enhance the three-dimensionality of ceramic surfaces without the use of an engraved punch or a dedicated roller, Sicer has developed several different types of texturing agents and digital glues.
Thirty years of challenges, achievements and visionary choices have enabled the well-known Italian ceramic glaze and colour producer to expand its business internationally and achieve success all over the world.
Two years after the acquisition of the Indian site in Morbi, Sicer has strengthened its position in Spain with the acquisition of the Cerfrit production facility.
The Demos 1 Fund, managed by Azimut Libera Impresa SGR, is investing in Sicer. The company will continue to be managed by the current partners Gianfranco Padovani and Giuliano Ferrari.
In September, the Italian glaze and colour producer opened an elegant and spacious showroom at its Indonesian site and launched a virtual 3D Gallery of its Ubersetto showroom
Sicer has installed new state-of-the-art laboratory instruments including simultaneous thermal and spectroscopic analysis equipment for the characterisation of semi-finished products
While Full Digital is without question the ultimate goal, it is important to manage the change by developing a mentality that combines ceramic expertise with a knowledge of the specific aspects of the digital process.By Sergio Marcaccioli, Sicer (Fiorano, Italy)
In addition to the existing range of inks and digital materials, the new company Sicer – Inkera will soon begin producing glazes and ceramic compounds along with technical grits and specialties for glazing high-end ceramic surfaces.
Sicer products are strictly Italian-made, designed and manufactured in the new R&D centre in Fiorano Modenese. Find out more about Sicer: watch the video.
