Body binders formulated to improve cohesion, green strength, and structural stability of the ceramic mass during forming.
Structural reinforcement of the raw mass phase
Body binders are temporary binders specifically designed to act on the ceramic mass before firing, improving cohesion between particles and increasing the mechanical strength of the green piece.
Body binders for porcelain
Designed for highly compacted, low-moisture masses.
Body binders for large format
They provide additional structural stability in large-scale components.
Body binders for technical systems

Everything you need to know about ceramic body binders
Binders for maximum mechanical strength in the green phase.
Ceramic body binders are high-performance temporary organic binders, specifically designed to act on the mass before the firing phase. Their main function in the industry is to increase the internal cohesion between particles and maximize the mechanical strength of the green or dry piece. This structural improvement is vital in high-production lines to minimize breakages, cracks, and waste during the pressing, drying, glazing, and transport stages.
By integrating into the slip, these technical additives optimize plasticity without negatively affecting rheology or interfering with the thermal phase. At Kerafrit, we formulate advanced body binders that guarantee clean combustion in the kiln, without contributing to black core formation, ensuring tiles and porcelain of the highest quality and reducing operational costs due to breakages.
