Erven Kil (258) is a superior raw material, carefully processed to meet expectations of high quality and performance in the ceramics sector.
Erven Kil (258) is a superior raw material, carefully processed to meet expectations of high quality and performance in the ceramics sector. Thanks to its rich mineral composition and carefully controlled production processes, this special clay is preferred for improving many properties of ceramic products, from their structure to their aesthetics.
Ceramic products made with Erven Kil (258) offer high mechanical strength and superior heat resistance thanks to their 26.66% Al2O3 content. The high proportion of SiO2 (56.18%) increases the hardness and durability of ceramics, enabling them to keep their form even under demanding conditions. Thanks to the advantages this clay offers, ceramic artists and engineers can bring more detailed and complex designs to life.
The low Fe2O3 level (2.24%) in Erven Kil (258) preserves colour consistency during firing. This allows ceramics to achieve a uniform appearance without unwanted colour variations. In addition, the optimised proportions of oxides such as K2O and CaO contribute to the chemical reactions of the products, ensuring excellent results during firing.
The 8.93% combustible organic matter content (L.O.I.) of Erven Kil (258) means lower loss on ignition and more uniform firing results. With a total purity of 99.93%, this clay can be used with confidence in the production of even the most delicate ceramic products.

Frequently asked questions
What are the advantages of using Erven Kil (258) in ceramics?
With its high aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide content, Erven Kil (258) gives ceramics excellent mechanical strength and heat resistance. This makes it possible to produce more durable, longer-lasting ceramic products.
Does Erven Kil (258) cause colour changes during firing?
Thanks to its low iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3) level, Erven Kil (258) keeps colour change during firing to a minimum. This is a significant advantage, especially in the production of light-coloured ceramics.
What should I bear in mind when ordering Erven Kil (258)?
When ordering, you should bear in mind that the clay may vary slightly from batch to batch and that you should order a suitable quantity for the needs of your project. It is also worth asking whether special pricing options are available for bulk orders and whether the delivery arrangements suit your company's needs.
