What Endeka Group does
Altadia Group (Esmalglass-Itaca Grupo), referenced in this task under the Endeka Group label, is a global producer of surface transformation materials for the ceramic tile industry. The company supplies frits, enamels, colors, and inks used by ceramic tile manufacturers to color, decorate, and shape pavements and wall coverings. Its core technology is a portfolio of proprietary material formulations tied to specific kiln profiles and ceramic recipes, with domain specialization in coloring and surface decoration as the principal technical differentiator.
The business is built on direct industrial sales to ceramic tile manufacturers, supported by a physical footprint of 32 production plants and 19 distribution and after-sales service centers across 19 countries, with 3,600+ employees globally. The entity was formed in 2023 through the merger of Esmalglass-Itaca-Fritta and the ceramic division of Ferro, consolidating two of the largest players in the global ceramic coatings value chain under the unified Altadia brand. The company is privately held and is incorporated in Spain, with headquarters in Vila-real, Castellón, and operates under the legal name Esmalglass-Itaca Grupo.
Revenue is generated through sale of industrial materials (hardware-like sales) to a single disclosed customer vertical: ceramic tile manufacturers. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, and no customer logos or contract terms are available in the source data. The company also operates the Cátedra Altadia academic chair for research and thought leadership, and is enrolled in the Responsible Care program via FEIQUE, signaling formal environmental, health, safety, and security commitments. Note: the source data is for Altadia Group, not Endeka Group as specified in the task; the two may be related or the labeling may reflect a data-source confusion.
