 Frit
If you didn't already know this, Frit
is the trade term used to describe recycled glass once it has been
ground down into a fine sand. Generally Frit is seen as a midway stage
in a longer manufacturing process and is normally supplied as a raw
material for making tiles or even recycled glass bottles. However,
Frit has an aesthetic all of its own and could be used in a variety
of ways which don't involve melting or pressing.
Moulded
Tiles
A range of tiles in a range of colours
and sizes, made from 100% recycled glass cullet. The glass recyclate
is ground to a fine Frit and then exposed to a combination of heat
and pressure to create these textured pieces. Various surface details
are available and customised patterns are a possibility.
Panels
These
panels (or 'bricks') are manufactured using 100% recycled glass. They
are perfectly clear which is unusual for a recycled glass as it usually
takes on a greenish tint following the second processing. The panels
come in a range of surface textures and patterns, each of which manipulate
the light in different ways.
Tiles
A wide range of tiles in a range of colours
and sizes, made from 100% recycled glass cullet. The glass recyclate
is ground to a fine Frit and then exposed to a combination of heat
and pressure to create these opaque, textured pieces.
T.T.U.R.A.
This material is yet another example of what
happens when you effectively marry environmental concern with design
innovation and creativity. Manufactured using a two-part blend of
recycled glass and a low-toxicity (solvent free) binding material.
Particularly suited to flooring applications both for internal and
external environments, T.T.U.R.A. can also be totally customised by
the specifier (size, thickness, colours etc.). Moulded details can
also be added to the surface of this material giving great detailing
potential at little extra cost. The average sample piece will consist
of 85% recycled glass.
