The UNICAM group visited the industrial area of the Grandinetti company, with a guided tour devoted to show all the project participants the line for the making of the terrazzo tiles. The director, Valentino Grandinetti, show us the different raw materials used and the steps for the mixing and casting of the tiles. Particular attention was devoted to the explanation of the new single-layer technology, for which the company is one of the first in the world, the use of the “microcamere-curing” process and the new kind of press for the production of monolayer tiles (patent).
The visit was particularly useful to come in a closer contact with the industrial processes and problems connected with the tiles manufacture and share experiences and competences.
