Terra Green Ceramics has been manufacturing recycled glass
ceramic tile for more than 30 years. You could say we were the
first, and you would be correct. Yes, the first recycled content
ceramic tiles on the market, and SCS-certified for 55% preconsumer content.
We start with blended raw materials consisting mostly of
recycled glass, clays, sand and feldspar, which is extruded
to thickness and cut to size. The tile is then time-loaded into
the kiln for firing. Terra Green uses a single, fast-fire process
using natural gas in both the dryers and the kiln.
In-house recycling involves two catch conveyors and a throwback conveyor which accumulate material and send it back for
recycling. In addition, we use a glaze re-claimer at the spray
line which separates the glaze from the water, allows clean
water to run back through the system, and the residual glaze to
turn to powder for proper disposal, not into waste water.
We are based in Richmond, IN, in the heartland of America,
and operate an energy- efficient plant run by a employees who
are good at what they do, and very proud of the products they
produce.
