Qualities certified for food use

Teide has recently carried out the verification of compliance with migration limits for lead and cadmium according to Royal Decree 891/2006 approving the technical-sanitary standards applicable to ceramic objects for food use.

Certified qualities:

  • RA brick
  • DENSO A1 brick
  • DENSO AA brick
  • R-40/9-H brick
  • Mortero MH-940

This means that the qualities mentioned before, are suitable for use in ovens that are in contact with food products, such as pizza ovens or barbecues. Among these types of bricks, we can highlight the alumina content of our RA bricks, which is around 30%, giving it a higher thermal resistance and durability than other manufacturers of this type of brick (with contents of only 18-19%).
