ECTS (European Ceramic Technology Suppliers), the working group that brings together Europe’s leading suppliers in the ceramics industry, held their second annual meeting in Greece on 4 November.
Among the items on the agenda, we would like to highlight the decision to hold another ceramics symposium in Iran in 2017. This time the symposium will take place in Tehran. The dates will be decided soon and we will inform you of them through this newsletter.

The ECTS also agreed to carry out a series of actions to promote ceramics products in emerging markets where a decrease in their use has been observed. They hope to collaborate with TBE (Tiles & Bricks Europe) on these actions.
Lastly, elections for board members were held, as is done every three years. Miquel Moix (BERALMAR) will take over for Dries van Hapert (DE BOER) as chairman. Stefan Eirich (EIRICH), Felip Verdés (TALLERES VERDÉS) and Dries van Hapert (DE BOER) will also be on the board.
The next ECTS meeting will be hosted by one of its newest members, MAK-SAN, in Izmir, Turkey in May.
