Direct factory supply from ARTWAY’s 10,000 sqm kiln facility. Engineered with chip-resistant thermal stoneware bodies and lead-free non-porous glazes for severe commercial usage.
Ghana’s rapid commercial expansion—driven by booming hospitality developments in Accra, Kumasi, Takoradi, and Tamale—has escalated the demand for high-grade ceramic tableware, stoneware bakeware, and commercial serveware. Traditional imported melamine and cheap low-temperature earthenware are quickly being phased out by premium hotel developers, catering enterprises, and retail distributors in favor of high-fired, non-porous stoneware.
In West Africa’s food culture, dining involves hearty, hot meals like Banku, Fufu, Jollof Rice, and thick soups (Light Soup, Groundnut Soup, Palm Nut Soup). Serveware must possess high thermal retention, exceptional mechanical strength, and resistance to thermal shock. Standard low-fired ceramics frequently crack under rapid temperature shifts or absorb grease and moisture, causing bacterial growth and glaze crazing.
ARTWAY’s high-density stoneware products are specifically engineered to solve these operational pain points for Ghanaian procurement managers. Fired at controlled temperatures exceeding 1280°C, our stoneware yields a moisture absorption rate below 0.5%, ensuring complete hygiene compliance with Ghana Food and Drugs Authority (FDA Ghana) standards while surviving high-turnover dishwashing cycles in busy commercial kitchens.

Our standardized 5-stage production process guarantees precision, consistency, and on-time shipment for Ghanaian business buyers.
We analyze your CAD drawings, reference physical samples, or custom color boards. Our engineers review wall thickness, thermal expansion rates, and mold draft angles.
Plaster working molds and sample firings are completed within 15 to 25 days. Fired physical samples are sent directly to your location in Ghana for approval.
Automated slip casting or jiggering followed by precise glaze dipping, reactive spraying, or custom logo decal application before high-temperature tunnel kiln firing.
Every piece undergoes AQL 2.5 inspection for glaze uniformity, dimensional tolerances, and thermal integrity. We manage FOB Bangkok or CIF Tema shipping logistics.
Shipping bulk fragile ceramics across global ocean routes requires meticulous packaging engineering. ARTWAY utilizes heavy-duty 5-ply outer master cartons reinforced with honeycomb corner guards, shrink-wrapped heat-treated wooden pallets, and anti-moisture desiccant packs to prevent transit damage during sea freight from Thailand to Tema Port, Ghana.
