Established in 1920 as family owned company, created through the decades a
great reputation for innovation, progressive development that both finally ensure
reliable quality products, such as: hollow and perforated bricks, roof tilles, and
celler system.
550.000 tn of ceramic building materials are produced annualy at six different
owned plants fullfilling quality standards and aesthetic design.
By the participation to the EU – ETS , VIOKERAL organised R&D&I department ,
in order to achieve the KYOTO target and creates CARBON OFFSETS .Thus , in
the production process , valorise waste or by-products into raw materials

Project Idea Concept
1. Production of ceramic products by mixing clay materials with :
Olive Stone Wooden Residue
Alperujo (two phase olive oil mills waste)
Olive Oil Mill Waste Waters (OMWW)
Other biomass waste (agricultural, food industry)
Oil drilling and processing
2. Reduction of energy demands (up to 60%)
3. Reduction of water demand (up to 30% for Alperujo and OMWW)
4. Increase resource efficiency through kilns, boilers , heat exchangers
and automation systems.
5. Involve cross - sectorial corporations, machinery constructors and
research institutes to the reduction of GHG emissions and
resource efficiency.
Major Advantages :
a) Holistic approach for resource management
b)Substantial reduction in energy demands and CO2
emissions.
