FOCUS ON
Ceramics: a possible new identity
Ceramic formats which perform the same function and have similar properties, but with different appearances and attributes, can be considered part of the same identity in the new contemporary system.
Nowadays we ought to call them modules with a design identity of their own, because in contemporary culture they sum up the principle of objects which are diversified yet standardised, even while maintaining the properties and image of reproducible, interpretable manufactures.
Founded in 1898, ASTM International is a not-for-profit organization that provides a global forum for the development and publication of voluntary consensus standards for materials, products, systems, and services.
Active Clean Air & Antibacterial Ceramic™
Fiandre and Iris Ceramica, have developed a new production method geared towards materials whose active principle helps to improve the quality of the environment.
Urban benzene and population exposure
People aren't just at risk from carcinogenic benzene when they are out on city streets: sadly, the air is polluted also inside of buildings. Scientific research has demonstrated that, among all the materials for inside walls and floors, technical ceramics are the least pollution-prone.
