ABC Shoji Launches New Imported Ceramic Tiles 'Listone' and 'Reconcrete'

ABC Shoji Co., Ltd., headquartered in Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, and led by President Shigeru Higashikawa, which develops, manufactures, imports, and sells building materials, has launched imported ceramic tiles 'Listone' and 'Reconcrete'. In recent years, with increasing environmental awareness, building materials are required to have high environmental performance. While a recycling rate of around 40% is considered high for ceramic tiles, these products achieve a recycling rate of 63.2% or more. Conventional tiles primarily use pre-firing waste generated during the manufacturing process as recycled material, but these products have established a unique manufacturing technology that reuses post-firing waste, waste glass, and solar panels as raw materials. This ensures high recycling rates while maintaining the quality of finish and performance. They have also obtained GREENGUARD certification and LEED® certification, contributing to the reduction of environmental impact. 'Listone' features a French limestone-inspired design with a soft texture and color palette, available in 5 colors and 3 finishes. 'Reconcrete' offers a terrazzo design with elegant, subtle chips layered over 3 base concrete colors, and a plain design that highlights the material's texture. Both products harmonize with spaces and create a sense of luxury. The company has set a sales target of 50 million yen for these products within three years. In addition to these products, seven new ceramic tile items have been added, and the company will continue to propose them for various hotels, commercial facilities, stores, and residences.
