Our tiles are currently recommended solely for indoor wall applications in dry environments. We are actively working on the development and improvement of the technology to expand their range of use cases.
Yes, BioSintering® is a versatile platform technology with potential applications beyond tiles, including architectural surfaces, custom interior elements, and speciality building materials. We're actively exploring these opportunities while maintaining our current focus on tile production.
Yes, a key advantage of our BioSintering® technology is its compatibility with existing manufacturing equipment. Tile producers can implement our process with minimal modifications to their current production lines, significantly reducing transition costs and implementation time.
Yes, we offer customisation in terms of colours, finishes, and designs. Our process enables greater flexibility in pigmentation than conventional ceramics, allowing for unique aesthetic options for your projects.
Yes, the process allows for wide range of natural pigments and customised designs without compromising quality.
Yes, we are exploring potential applications beyond tiles, including sustainable brick and concrete alternatives. Please get in touch to discuss new ideas and opportunities.
Yes! Because our tiles don't undergo high-temperature firing, we can incorporate a wider range of pigments and decorative elements than conventional ceramics. This includes colours that would normally degrade in a kiln, giving designers more creative freedom.
Yes, Eralith tiles offer the same premium aesthetic qualities as conventional ceramic tiles. In fact, our manufacturing process allows for a wider range of colours and design options than traditional fired ceramics since we aren't limited by high-temperature constraints.
Our BioSintering® process generally delivers highly consistent results across production batches. We've implemented quality control protocols to ensure uniformity in composition, mechanical properties, and dimensional stability, meeting or exceeding industry standards for premium ceramic tiles.
Our tiles are crafted using recycled plaster sourced from building demolitions and renovations. The manufacturing process itself significantly reduces the need for energy-intensive kiln firing, decreasing the overall energy consumption.
Conventional ceramic manufacturing requires kilns operating at 850-1250°C that consume vast amounts of energy and produce significant emissions. Our BioSintering® technology combines recycled materials with bio-based binders at low temperatures (<90°C), eliminating the need for energy-intensive firing while maintaining mechanical performance.
Our technology eliminates kiln firing and other energy-intensive steps associated with traditional ceramics, reducing energy costs and lowering emissions by 94%. It contains over 98% recycled content and helps manufacturers achieve their sustainability goals.
Our BioSintering technology combines recycled plaster with natural plant-based binders to create strong, ceramic-like tiles without the need for kiln firing, significantly reducing carbon emissions and costs while utilising existing manufacturing equipment.
Our BioSintering® process achieves up to 90% energy savings compared to conventional ceramic manufacturing. This is primarily through eliminating the firing process, which typically accounts for 75% of the total energy cost in traditional ceramic production.
Yes, our core BioSintering® technology is protected through a combination of patents, trade secrets, and proprietary know-how. This comprehensive IP strategy ensures we maintain our competitive edge while driving sustainable innovation in the ceramics industry.
Currently, we recommend Eralith tiles for indoor wall applications in dry environments. We're continuously developing the technology to expand application possibilities in the future.
Our tiles are being developed to achieve BIII classification certification under EN 14411. We are also continuously improving our processes to meet leading environmental and industry standards for sustainability.
Adopting our technology requires minimal modifications, as it is designed to integrate seamlessly with existing ceramic tile manufacturing equipment, ensuring a smooth transition for manufacturers.
We are in the process of expanding our production capabilities and expect to reach high-volume production by the second quarter of 2025. Those interested can sign up for the waiting list.
Manufacturers licensing our technology can expect significant cost savings on energy, reduced carbon emissions, and access to the rapidly growing market for sustainable building materials, all of which contribute to a strong return on investment.
Eralith tiles have a water absorption of less than 10%, exceeding BIII classification requirements. They are suitable for indoor applications in dry environments.
We provide comprehensive training, ongoing technical support, troubleshooting assistance and optimisation support to licensees, to ensure smooth operations with our tiles.
Eralith tiles require similar maintenance to conventional ceramic tiles. Clean with mild detergents only and avoid abrasive cleaning products to maintain their appearance and integrity over time.
Unlike many other sustainable tile alternatives, BioSintering® has both an extraordinarily high recycled content (>95%) whilst having an ultra-low carbon footprint (20x lower than conventional tiles). [name pending]® also avoids ingredients with high carbon footprints, such as sugar or lime, or long processing times which can increase the overall environmental footprint.
Our tiles are sustainably produced through our BioSintering process, which uses >95% recycled materials and avoids kiln firing and energy-intensive processes, resulting in a 94% lower carbon footprint than conventional ceramic tiles. This provides our tiles with opportunities for a unique aesthetic appeal and practically zero shrinkage or warpage.
Eralith tiles are sustainably produced through our BioSintering® process which, unlike ordinary ceramic tiles, avoids kiln firing and other energy-intensive steps, resulting in a 94% lower carbon footprint. They contain over 95% recycled content while maintaining the durability and aesthetic appeal of traditional ceramics.
BioSintering® primarily utilises waste gypsum plaster (calcium sulphate dihydrate) combined with a sustainable bio-based active ingredient. The recycled gypsum can be obtained from plasterboard waste, a substance with a negative cost, helping to address the UK's 983,100 tonnes annual plasterboard waste challenge.
Eralith tiles are currently available in 100x100 mm and 100x200 mm formats, both at 8 mm thickness. We're developing additional sizes and formats - please contact us directly for custom requirements or to discuss upcoming product releases.
We are currently showcasing our tiles through select projects and partnerships. To request samples or discuss your project needs, please contact us via our website.
