Porcelain / Vitreous Enamels

Industry leading and expansive range of high-quality products

Vitreous enamel, also called porcelain enamel, is made by fusing powdered glass to a metal substrate by firing, resulting in decorative and functional surfaces. The enamel powder melts, flows, and then hardens to a smooth, durable coating. Frits are the basis and main component of an enamel coating.

Each enamel frit is individually designed to address the complex variables of chemistry and end use application. Quality raw materials are blended and melted to create a frit technically adapted for different applications and available in various forms.
