Our products are in bisque form; they become ready for use after glazing and firing.
Painting and Glazing
Our Refsan ready-to-use underglaze paints can be safely used on both tile and ceramic bisque. Glazing enhances both the aesthetic appeal and durability of the product.
Ceramic Products: When glazing ceramic bisque products, ceramic glazes must be used. Ceramic glazes typically mature between 1040°C and 1050°C, providing a smooth finish and extending product life.
Tile Products: When glazing tile bisque products, tile glazes must be used. Tile glazes are fired at approximately 900°C - 920°C, giving a fine and elegant surface.
Firing
Our products are carefully fired at 1050°C to achieve bisque form. This firing temperature increases durability and enhances color vibrancy. Different firing times and temperatures may affect surface properties and aesthetic appearance.
Acrylic Paint
Acrylic paints can be used for decoration; however, this process is not suitable for food contact. Applying protective varnish after acrylic painting is recommended. Acrylic painting does not require firing and is intended for decorative purposes only. Such paints should not be used on items intended for contact with food.
Possible Variations in Products
In bisque products produced by casting or wheel throwing, differences in thickness and size may occur. Casting may result in thin or thick areas depending on structural characteristics. These variations reflect the uniqueness of each product and the effects of craftsmanship.
The use of different clay types can lead to natural tone differences. The color of ceramic and tile bisques depends on the type of clay used. For example, white clay produces lighter-toned bisques, while red clay gives darker and warmer tones.
Product Durability
Our products become durable after firing and glazing. However, care and usage conditions may vary by product type. Ceramic products are generally more resistant to external factors but require careful handling. Acrylic-painted decorations may wear over time.
