Deakin Bio: A sustainable bio-based alternative to decorative ceramic tiles

Share product:

DeakinBio’s BioSintering® process uses low-cost, readily available raw materials to produce ceramic-like materials without the need for a firing step – an inorganic base and binder are compressed and dried at 60-90 °C, enabling a ceramic-like tile to be made with:
– a significant saving in energy use of up to 90%
– a decrease in CO2 emissions of up to 94%
– a decrease in particulate emissions of 99% compared to conventional ceramic tiles.
The process is compatible with existing tile manufacturing equipment, delivering a drop-in replacement without the need for significant capex expenditure.
Ceramic-like tiles have been chosen as a first use case for commercialisation, though the BioSintering process can be thought of more broadly as a way of creating 3D, ceramic-like objects without a firing step. Further applications will subsequently be assessed and prioritised.
