Frits, Engobes & Glazes
Akcoat closely follows all developments and innovations in the ceramics industry worldwide to ensure the continuous access of manufacturers to evolving technologies.

Advantages of Akcoat frits, compound engobes & glazes:
- Reduced surface defects,
- Smooth and silklike surface,
- Strong color perception and aesthetic appearance,
- Increased chemical resistance,
- Easy-to-clean surface,
- Provided energy efficiency by reducing the absorption of sun rays by
- Increased service life thanks to reduced mechanical strength and water permeability.
All Solutions
- Ceramic Frits
  Ceramic frits are manufactured by melting ceramic raw materials in the melting furnace at the glass transition temperature. The melt is cooled quickly by quenching in water. The primary raw material of the glazing applied on ceramic products, the ceramic frit is a glass with an amorphous structure, which is considered to be an intermediate good.
  
  Ceramic frit is among the strategically important materials that directly impact the surface quality and designs of ceramic products.

- Granillas
  Akcoat granillas are grinded special frits that provide high resistance to chemicals and abrasion, advanced color development in digital graphic color and an intrinsicallynatural feel. The wide range of Akcoat granillas are available in different granulometries that are suitable for wet and dry applications. The different types are miscible according to the specific needs of the customer.
  
  Matt Granillas
  
  Tranparent Granillas
  
  Anti-Slip Granillas
  
  Sugar Effect Granillas
- Micro Granillas
  Specially processed frits with glass-ceramic technology for ceramic developed and patented by Akcoat for use in sanitaryware:
  
  Increased homogeneous flow of the glaze to cover hard-to-reach parts of 3-dimensional products such as washbasins, WCs, bidets.
  
  It provides brighter and smoother end-product surface.
  
  It improves production efficiency thanks to reduced melting temperature, energy costs, secondary processes, and scrap.
- Compound Engobes & Glazes
  Akcoat compound engobes and glazes are ready-to-use combinations of frits and raw materials in solid form for grinding.
  
  These high-ranking compounds or glazes (chemical composition, melting, and physical characteristics) are adapted to the various application conditions of different ceramics manufacturers, by the type of base firing range, or decoration technique.
INK-JET Technology
The INKJET MASTER digital ink range combines state-of-the-art technology with a wide color range, which allows obtaining ceramic pieces with extraordinary characteristics, both technical and aesthetic terms.

Akcoat INKJET MASTER has:
- Excellent and wide color range.
- Inks of high intensity and tone
- Easy adaptation to all printing systems.
- Extremely stable and durable inks.
- Total environmental safety with products formulated using innocuous products without ADR / IMDG / ICAO labeling.
- Specific set of fast-drying inks for double firing.
Digital printing with the INKJET MASTER inks revolutionize traditional efficiency methods.
All Solutions
- Digital Inks
  Fast-Dry Ink Technology helps to obtain a more intense color tone thanks to its fast-drying feature compared to standard inks. It also prevents all problems related to late drying such as quality issues, and overcomes the printing speed limitation of standard inks.
- Digital Effects
  The effects obtained in the INKJET MASTER range thanks to the cutting-edge digital technology perfectly capture the essence of traditional ceramics.
  
  The products have the same qualities and advantages as digital inks, providing the material effect that ideally complements their use for ceramic pieces of all technologies and sizes.
Ceramic Pigments
Akcoat produces a wide range of high-quality inorganic pigments for the entire ceramics industry, meeting the standards set by the Quality Department. It also offers customization options to meet high-quality standards for its customers.

The Pigment R&D Department and the Technical Service Department work closely with customers to provide the necessary color solutions and innovations.
