? Year 1991


Plados S.p.A. was founded with the aim of producing kitchen sinks in composite material. In a short time, the company managed to gain a prominent position on the international scene.

? Year 2000


Inauguration of the new headquarters in Montecassiano (MC) of about 10,000 square meters.

? Year 2003


The PLADOS and TELMA companies (the latter, founded in 1981, was the first Italian company to produce composite sinks) join forces and experience to create one of the most advanced composite sink production centres in the world.

? Year 2004


The Plados-Telma Group is the first company in the world to offer the antibacterial sink capable of inhibiting the development of microorganisms, thanks to the use of silver ions.

? Year 2010


Inauguration of the new raw material production plant, developed with state-of-the-art technology and fully automated. The facility has a total area of 3,500 square metres.

ARIAPURA: The sink that breathes.
The Plados-Telma group presents the sink that helps purify the air in the kitchen environment. Thanks to titanium dioxide nanoparticles and their photocatalytic azione the ARIAPURA sinks can perform a triple azione:

? Anti-pollution
? Antibacterial
? Self-cleaning

? Year 2013


The company receives an important award from the European Commission. The Green sinks project (production of ecological sinks with recycled raw materials) has been approved and financed by the LIFE programme, the European Community environment fund. It is one of the 12 Italian industrial projects financed by Europe during the two-year period 2013-2015.

The raw materials involved in the production of composite materials are limited in quantity, and the production of kitchen sinks does not currently use recycled materials. Instead, Delta's innovative idea aims to produce a new line called GREEN SINKS to completely replace virgin raw materials with recycled ones. The recovery will be of two types, the first deriving from the scrapone of sinks and internal scraps and the second from the recovery of raw materials from other industrial productions. The replacement of mineral filler in composite sinks will bring a number of advantages:

? Preservation of the landscape by reducing the extractionone of minerals;
? Reduzione of consumption for the transport of ore from abroad;
? Recycling of a wide variety of pre- and post-consumer waste;
? Reduzione of waste going to landfill;

Rivoluzione Green
Nature, people and the economy are connected and interdependent terms of the same relationship; acting for the environment means generating growth in value for communities all over the world. for this reason, Plados Telma's green commitment covers the origin of raw materials, production processes, efficient use of energy and water resources, the product and its life cycle, to build corporate sustainability.

RENEW: Renewed raw materials instead of virgin raw materials

Our aim was to maximise the use of organic (mma+pmma) and inorganic (mineral fillers) raw materials that would otherwise be destined for landfill, so as not to resort to non-renewable virgin raw materials. Through a process of regeneration of recovered raw materials, we obtained a green compound at the origin that guarantees the same chemical, physical, mechanical and aesthetic characteristics as the traditional compound of the Plados Telma sinks. The quality of the final product is identical, the difference is made by the origin of the raw material, a difference capable of being added value.
