Specialists from “100 TONN” completed the installation of SACMI (Italy) ceramic tile production equipment at a facility in Samarkand, Republic of Uzbekistan. The project involved installing two new SACMI PH3200 presses, an ECP 285/16.9 five-level horizontal dryer, and an FCC 285/111.3 single-channel high-speed roller kiln.

Once again, our team of specialists proved that no conditions can compromise the quality of our work.
