Four decades of global whiteware ceramics. Whiteware covers both tableware and sanitaryware. I have travelled around the world in this industry, and I still do. There are no shortcuts to experience. None. Wen you combine that with innovations at their best, it is me, Tom. Call me or write to me, and test me.
