Introduction
Today sanitary wares are made from variety
of materials each of them having certain advantages over the
others. However, sanitary wares made of ceramic has many advantages
over those made of other materials and are economical also.
It has a wide acceptance in the society. The ceramic sanitary
wares are used for sanitation purposes and the product ranges
from washbasins, closets, urinals, sinks, baths to hoppers.
It has properties like very good resistance to weathering,
chemical erosion, mechanical strength and resistance to abrasion.
Its use in sanitation has preference over other materials.
In near future also the chance for replacing these items by
other materials looks very black. They are economical, easy-to-clean,
longer life and are available in pleasing colours.
Market Potential
The market for ceramic sanitary ware is
very bright since its demand is increasing at a good rate.
The reasons are not far to seek. The improved living standards
coupled with good economic situations along with supporting
Government policies for housing sector speak themselves for
the demand of these products. There is large renovation activities
taking place in the urban areas. All these factor ensure and
creates a positive demand for these items. It is an essential
and integral part of building construction in areas like housing,
educational and research institutions, hospitals, industries,
hotels and restaurants, cinemas and other public places.
The formation of Housing Development Finance
Corporation and lucrative financial scheme of Government and
private banks and asy availability of finance at low rates
of interest from banks has pushed the demand of building material
due to all-round growth in the building construction sector.
The role of the private sector, which accounts for the lion's
share of investment in housing and construction has increased
and it shall remain favourable.
The demand of ceramic sanitary wares is
increasing day by day in rural and urban areas due to increased
construction activities and changing sanitation habits. There
are around 120 small scale units with an annual capacity of
around 85,000 MT. The small scale industries are manufacturing
mostly white coloured opaque sanitary ware which has a large
demand in the rural areas. A number of units have also started
manufacturing coloured variety of sanitary ware which is in
great demand not only in the urban areas but has created a
good export market also. The States and Central Govt. have
launched a number of house building schemes and sanitation
programmes across the country, which promises a good scope
for the establishment of small-scale units.
Basis and Presumptions
i. It had been taken into consideration
that the unit will work on single shift basis for 300 days
in a year. The firing operations are, however, to be carried
out continuously on three shift basis till particular firing
cycle is complete in all respects
ii. To achieve full plant capacity 1-2 months trial production
is required
iii. Interest rate is a t 13%
iv. Margin money will vary from 20- 25% depending upon the
location and scheme adopted by the entrepreneurs i.e. self
employment or commercial scheme.
v. Operative period of the project is around 10 years considering
technology obsolescence rate and period of repayment of loan.
vi. The costs of land, construction charges, cost of machinery
and equipment, raw materials and consumables, salary and wages,
other expenses etc. indicated in the profile are based on
the prices prevailing at the time of preparation. Therefore,
there are subject to necessary changes from time to time based
on the local conditions.

Technical Aspects
Process of Manufacture
Process of Manufacture The non-plastic
raw materials like quartz, felspar and some clays are crushed
and ground to required fineness. They are unloaded in an agitator
where more clay is added as per composition. The slip is screened,
magnetized and kept in an agitating tank with addition of
required flocculents. The wares are cast in plaster moulds.
The wares are dried and finished and are kept on open racks
for drying. The dried wares are tested for cracks and then
applied glaze by spraying. It is then loaded in the kilns
for firing at a temperature of about 1260OC. After firing
they are sorted out and packed for sale.
Quality Control
and Standards
The Bureau of Indian Standards has formulated and published
the following specifications for maintaining the quality of
the product and testing.

Pollution Control
In this projects shuttle/tunnel kiln is
recommended which is fuel efficient and hence comparatively
non-polluting, however dust collecting equipment need be installed
on crushing machine and the furnace be fitted with retrofitting
for removal of obnoxious waste. The unit should obtain No
Objection Certificate from State Pollution Control Board.
Energy Conservation
This industry needs energy conservation
in fuel as well as in electricity. Ceramic fibre lined shuttle
kiln proposed in the project profile is fuel efficient and
the latest modern kiln which conserves fuel energy when compared
with conventional ceramic D.D. kilns. Simple precautions and
knowledge of effective utilization of electric power need
be practiced.
