Abstract: The invention relates to a high-performance compacted ceramic material, comprising between 40%-85% by weight of glassy phase, having a density between 2.3 and 3.0 g/cm3, and characterized in that it has an internal porosity of less than 4% by volume. This material is highly resistant to mechanical and chemical action, sparingly permeable and prevents staining, so it is extremely suitable as a building material, particularly for kitchen countertops.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the production of solid surfaces for construction, in particular large boards made from completely inorganic components, for use as kitchen worktops, bathroom surfaces, building cladding materials, flooring and for other uses related to the field of construction. The invention is suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing an article from agglomerated stone, for example a slab for construction or decoration, comprising the following steps: bringing into contact (i) an inorganic filler, (ii) a polyester resin precursor composition and (iii) a powdered electrically conductive component; mixing same to produce a uniform mass; distributing part of the mass on a substrate; pressing the distributed mass in a vibro-compaction press under vacuum conditions; and hardening the mass by means of polymerisation of the polyester resin.
