Criaterra is a zero-waste tile made from
100% natural materials with a 90% energy
saving over ceramic products. The wall tile
challenges the conventions of production
and design and is 100% biodegradable,
taking a bold step to product circularity.
Criaterra is entirely made from natural
materials, entirely recyclable and entirely
biodegradable: a true zero-waste wall
tile. Using up to 70% recycled content
from quarry waste (stone powders),
clays and plant fibres, the wall tile uses
a low temperature process that reduces
greenhouse gases and takes 90% less energy
than conventional ceramics.
Under the principle of Circular Earth
Technology, Criaterra starts with 100%
raw materials, even natural pigments,
with up to 70% of these materials postindustrial recycled. The tile is then made
with a patented process that replaces
conventional high temperature firing for
a 90% reduction in energy use and a 92%
reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
Thermally efficient (600% that of concrete),
Criaterra also provides energy savings in
use. At the end of life, it can be recycled or
degraded back into the earth as nutrients.
