Smoother, Stronger Ceramics

For more than 50 years, NYCO has been a supplier of choice for the ceramics industry. The purity and acicularity (aspect ratio) of NYCO wollastonite make it ideal for the manufacture of all types of structural clay products, whitewares and advanced ceramics where improved strength and surface appearance are required.

In glazes, wollastonite offers increased strength and smoothness with fewer surface imperfections.

From a manufacturing standpoint, NYCO wollastonite provides significant advantages over other traditional materials. These advantages include faster drying, reduced shrinkage, low loss on ignition (LOI) and lower CO2 emissions. Wollastonite also acts as a natural frit, potentially simplifying glaze formulations.
