Engobe is an intermediate layer applied between the ceramic body and the final glaze, designed to optimize the interaction between the substrate and the surface coating.

Thanks to their clay-based composition and calibrated thermal expansion coefficients, the SSE ceramic engobe series developed by Sicer improves glaze adhesion, enhances surface uniformity and optimizes the final aesthetic result.

Applications in ceramic production

SSE engobes are designed for use in the main ceramic production cycles, particularly for:

  • porcelain stoneware
  • lapped porcelain stoneware
  • digital decoration of ceramic surfaces

 

Types of SSE engobes

SSE range includes various formulations designed to meet specific production requirements.

Extra-white engobes

High-whiteness formulations designed to enhance the brightness of the ceramic surface and improve the color rendering of decorations.

High-expansion engobes

Products with calibrated thermal expansion coefficients to optimize the interaction between the ceramic body and the final glaze.

Anti-stain engobes

High-coverage formulations that ensure uniform surfaces and support the color development of digital inks used in ceramic decoration.
