Tianxiang high-end ceramic tiles: tempered by kiln fire for thousands of years, reshaping the backbone of architecture with "super waterproof"
From Fanchang Kiln to Tianxiang ceramic tiles, a waterproof revolution spanning thousands of years
1. Thousand-year kiln fire, rooted in the ceramic gene of Fanchang
Fanchang District, Wuhu, Anhui, a ceramic holy land soaked in history. Since the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Fanchang Kiln has been famous for its blue-and-white porcelain. Its glaze is like jade and its body is like solidified fat, carrying the ultimate pursuit of "water and fire fusion" by ancient Chinese craftsmen. Thousands of years ago, the craftsmen of Fanchang Kiln refined the glaze aesthetic of "the sky is blue after the rain and the clouds are broken" in the kiln fire; thousands of years later, the Tianxiang pottery tiles on this land, with the mission of "super waterproof", continue to write the legendary chapter of ceramics and architecture.

Second, the dilemma of traditional ceramic tiles: When "shielding from wind and rain" becomes the pain point of the times
Ceramic tiles have been the guardians of building roofs since ancient times, but they are facing unprecedented challenges in modern times:
- Waterproofing: Traditional dry ceramic tiles have high porosity, and rainwater penetration can easily cause roof leakage, corrosion of wooden structures, and even threaten building safety;
- Fragility: Under extreme temperature differences, the tile body freezes and thaws and cracks, and both the cold winter in the north and the plum rain in the south become hidden dangers;
- Efficiency dilemma: Rough craftsmanship leads to cumbersome construction, high labor costs, and out of touch with modern fast-paced needs;
- Aesthetic limitations: single color, rigid shape, difficult to match the design language of contemporary architecture.
The market is calling for a new species that can inherit the natural texture of ceramic tiles and break through traditional limitations with technology.

3. Celestial answer: Wet process redefines the "waterproof era" of ceramic tiles
In 2009, Tianxiang took root in prosperity and started with traditional dry-process ceramic tiles, and was well aware of the pain points of the industry; in 2022, the wet-process production line was put into production, and a ceramic tile revolution began.
1. The collision of millennium craftsmanship and modern technology
Tian Xiang draws inspiration from the ancient wisdom of "glaze and water blending" of Fanchang Kiln and innovates the wet pressing molding process:
- Ultra-dense body: Through high-pressure wet technology, the clay molecules are tightly reconstructed, and the water absorption rate is less than 3%, far exceeding the national standard (≤6%), achieving "no water seepage";
- Antifreeze core: Nano-level glaze sealing technology, resisting extreme temperature differences from -30℃ to 70℃, freeze-thaw cycle experiments over 100 times without cracks;
- Intelligent Manufacturing: The fully automatic temperature-controlled kiln accurately restores the essence of ancient firing methods, ensuring that each tile has uniform strength and zero defects.
2. Reshape construction aesthetics with humanized design
- Modular buckles: original "mortise and tenon" splicing system, installation efficiency increased by 40%, reducing dependence on manual labor;
- Three-dimensional drainage structure: tile surface water channel and air layer are designed in coordination, drainage speed is increased by 3 times in heavy rain, and water accumulation is eliminated;
- Customized aesthetic library: inspired by blue-and-white porcelain glaze, 12 kinds of national style glaze colors such as Jilan, Tianqing, and Amber are developed to make the roof a poetic extension of the building.

Fourth, the contemporary echo of the spirit of Fanchang Kiln: waterproofing is also cultural heritage
In the Tianxiang workshop, the kiln fire is still blazing, but there is more precise control of the digital screen; on the assembly line, the clay is still taken from the mountains and waters of Fanchang, but it is given new life by technology. The craftsmen on this land always remember the original intention of Fanchang Kiln to "carry the truth with utensils" - the essence of waterproofing is the protection of "home". From blue-and-white porcelain tea cups to super waterproof ceramic tiles, what has changed is the innovation of craftsmen from generation to generation, and what has not changed is the awe and conquest of "water and fire" by the people of Fanchang. Tianxiang ceramic tiles, with the warmth of a tile, let the thousand-year kiln fire continue on the modern roof.

V. Future Vision: Let the world's roofs flow with prosperous DNA
“Tianxiang high-end ceramic tiles, super waterproof! ”——This is not only an advertising slogan, but also a solemn promise to users. In the future, Tianxiang will continue to deepen the wet technology, promote the evolution of ceramic tiles from "functional building materials" to "architectural artworks", and let the prosperous ceramic genes, with each piece of super waterproof ceramic tile, go to the dome of global buildings.
Tianxiang, with tiles as the medium, is waterproof and also prevents erosion over time; with tiles as the ridge, it inherits and transmits the future weather.
