ABOUT US
In 1920, Germans founded Anfora, our ceramic factory, in Mexico City. Thanks to the German technical knowledge and the Mexican artistic skills, Anfora quickly became the national leader in vitrified porcelain. As of today, we have the most modern ceramic manufacturing facilities in Hidalgo, Mexico, where more than 900 workers provide the best quality, design and service operating Riedhammer kilns on more than 75,000 m2. We are proud to have 40 disabled people in our production team.
In 2020 we invested in a modern, flexible and lightweight kiln to accommodate much more flexible production in custom shapes. Thanks to this, Anfora today exports its line of porcelain bottles with custom designs for spirits, perfumes and gourmet product industries.
We apply the most demanding quality and design standards in the development of porcelain bottles, always under a focus of flexibility and innovation to meet the characteristics requested by our clients.
La calidad de la materia prima en conjunto con la alta temperatura de quema, resultan en los productos de mayor resistencia del mercado, estos cumplen con las regulaciones de seguridad del consejo FDA, California Prop 65 y NOM (México).
Nuestro esmalte está diseñado para evitar filtraciones y acumulación de gérmenes. El nivel de absorción en nuestras piezas es menor a 0.5% por ser un esmalte vitrificado de alta temperatura, esto se logra gracias a maquinaria de alta tecnología, pastas estadounidenses de alta calidad; prensas isostáticas alemanas, forja Netzch, maquinaria Lippert y hornos de Riedhammer.
