3D DIGITAL STRUCTURE
with sinking or repellent agent
The SynchroTile patent package technology for ceramic tiles combines digital printing of graphic patterns with 3D Digital Structure.
Digital Structure enables a whole new world of 3D design and texturing possiblities.
3D Digital Texturing
The digital embossing is created by applying a repellent or sinking agent. This type of digital structuring achieves an extraordinary realistic and natural effect. The textures of the ceramic tiles are easily synchronized with multiple graphic patterns and colored designs. The agents react with the glaze above, creating a deeper structure and countering defaults that could occur with traditional texturing.
Repellent agent
The sinking agent is applied to the substrate of the tile. After printing the texturing glaze, the design and a transparant protective glaze, in the kiln the sinking agent will react chemically with the texture glaze and the other structures that are printed to create the texture.
Sinking agent
The sinking agent is applied to the substrate of the tile. After printing the texturing glaze, the design and a transparent protective glaze, in the kiln the sinking agent will react chemically with the texture glaze and the other structures that are printed to create the texture.
