Company profile:Cooperativa Ceramica d'Imola was founded in 1874 after Giuseppe Bucci sold his company to his employees. Material quality, the freshness of the colours and decorations, immediately became the trademark of a firm which entered the 20th century as a front line player, beginning the production of tiles as its primary activity.Historic avant-gardes, new aesthetic, craft and technological requirements were thus integrated to enrich the product range, leading to an inevitable extension of the premises: a late 19th century glassworks was converted, by means of a fine architectural rehabilitation project, into new ceramic production premises.It is still an example of industrial archaeology and currently houses the museum, the exhibition hall and the workshop. With the backup of a constantly increasing technological capacity Cooperativa Ceramica d’Imola reached the sector’s production peaks in the 2000’s, meeting the new needs of foreign markets and becoming, in very few years, an international reference point in high quality innovative ceramics: from traditional double-fired Cooperativa Ceramica d’Imola broadened its range to take in single fired and rapid double-fired, glazed porcelain grès and the most modern full thickness gres porcelain, right down to special pieces, decoration and third firing.Task:- Glazer of line (for the control glazes mainly on two lines).
