Spanish term or phrase: vidrio y fritas
Son ocho mesas, una general y siete mesas sectoriales, una por cada uno de los sectores afectados por el Plan Nacional de Asignación (PNA): eléctrico, refino, cemento y cal, vidrio y fritas, cerámica, siderurgia y coquerías, y papel.

From a document on social dialogue and sustainable development. From a section describing measures in Spain, in this case, the Round Tables on Social Dialogue.

I was thinking "ceramics and glass sector" as would be a common name for this sector in English, but as you can see, ceramics is the next on the list. I understand "fritas" to be "kiln-fired" (?) but am not entirely sure. Anyone familiar with this term? Thanks in advance for your help. UK Eng please! Thanks.

What is more, it is appropriate to add certain types of glass and ceramic frits which do not meet the classification criteria set out in Council Directive 67/548/EEC [2] and which, in addition, do not have dangerous constituents above the relevant concentration limits, unless there is scientific data proving that these constituents are not available.

Por otra parte, es adecuado añadir ciertos tipos de vidrio y fritas cerámicas que no cumplen los criterios de clasificación fijados en la Directiva 67/548/CEE del Consejo [2] y que, además, no tienen componentes peligrosos por encima de los límites de concentración, salvo que haya datos científicos que demuestren que estos componentes no están disponibles.
