Ceramic Production Technology Evolves to Meet Interior Design Demands
Developments in interior design and architecture are driving the ceramics industry to evolve production technologies that not only produce design variations but also improve shape accuracy and surface quality.
One such technology is the ‘rectified edge’ process, which refines the edges of ceramic tiles to produce more accurate dimensions and sharper angles. This technology supports tile installation with more regular grout lines and more aligned patterns.
This technological advancement is being implemented by PT Platinum Ceramics Industry through the Platinum Atelier Rectified Series. This collection relies on rectified edge technology to produce ceramics with more precise dimensions.
Jali Wijaya, Marketing Director of PT Platinum Ceramics Industry, stated that technological development is a vital component in providing materials that meet evolving spatial design needs.
“The premium impression of a space often comes from the details. Through the Atelier Rectified Series, we provide ceramics with more precise dimensions to support neater grout lines and a more harmonious room appearance,” said Jali.
Rectified edge technology ensures that the sides of the ceramic tiles are processed with a higher level of precision. With more consistent dimensions and angles, the material can be laid more seamlessly on both floors and walls.
Developments in production technology are not limited to the shape of the material. The ceramics industry is also developing surface variations to expand the design options available for various spaces.
The Platinum Atelier Rectified Series, for instance, features designs inspired by natural stone, marble, and cement, as well as contemporary patterns. The collection also utilises surface developments such as Shape Ink and Satin Finish Embossed.
These advancements demonstrate that innovation in the ceramics industry is beginning to encompass various aspects, from production processes and material dimensions to surface characteristics. Technology serves as a key instrument in addressing increasingly diverse architectural and interior design requirements.
PT Platinum Ceramics Industry stated that the development of the Atelier Rectified Series is part of its effort to merge technology and design within ceramic materials. The company has over 55 years of experience in the Indonesian ceramics industry and holds halal certification.
