Pamesa Do Brasil is owned by Pamesa Espana, together with private Brazilian capital and is dedicated to the production, distribution and sale of ceramic flooring and glazed porcelain tiles. Pamesa`s experience, high quality of products and constant technological innovation make it recognized as one of the most modern companies in Brazil. Based on the positive experience of several ceramic factories in Spain, Pamesa Do Brasil decided to install a combined heat and power (CHP) plant associated with its clay atomization process. The CHP plant is an efficient way to use natural gas to complement other energy sources and produces a clear reduction in energy costs.
