Specialists in machines for the tile manufacturing industry
Aquacut Limited is the official UK distributor for both Ferrari & Cigarini and Dal Prete, two leading Italian manufacturers serving the stone, porcelain, and building materials industries.
Ferrari & Cigarini specialises in the design and production of machines and plants for processing porcelain, stone, brick, and glass. We offer a broad range of equipment—from on-site cutting and profiling machines to large-scale industrial systems, with the Compact range being a firm favourite in the UK market. With a strong focus on innovation, Ferrari & Cigarini has developed specialised solutions for producing mosaic pieces, strips, skirting tiles, bullnosed edges, brick slips, brick pistols, and steps. The company also provides fully automated feeding and unpacking systems, including robotic stations, and holds an international patent for its unwrap system. Their technology also supports the cutting of strips, corners, and hollow flat tiles for ventilated façade systems.
Dal Prete, also represented in the UK by Aquacut, is a pioneer in wastewater treatment solutions for the stoneworking sector. Since 1964, Dal Prete has been designing and manufacturing advanced systems that recycle water, reduce sludge, and support sustainable production. Their fully automated plants deliver high-quality clarified water, reduce the use of chemical agents, and help companies significantly cut water consumption and waste disposal costs—all while complying with environmental regulations.
