Process
What makes Blackjack Clay different from other ceramic supply businesses selling only pugged
clay? Traditional ceramic supply businesses are set up to meet the needs of the individual end
user. Their customer base is typically an individual person, be it students, studio potters or anyone with a yen towards pottery.
Blackjack Clay evolved symbiotically with the growing stoneware industry in Marshall, Texas. Typically, industrial ceramic producers must process their own clay bodies in order to maintain strict quality control. For these producers consistency is a must. The filter pressing, used by Blackjack, is the time tested universal process. It is essential for refining and mixing the highest quality clay body for the manufacturing of any moist or wet pressed clay. Filter pressing is a costly and labor-intensive process for mixing and refining clay bodies. Processing the clay in this fashion allows all the wonderful natural attributes of the clay to be kept in tact. You will feel the difference the minute you begin to work with our clay. Blackjack offers this quality clay in both filter press and pugged form to both large and small end users.
