Zircon Industry Association, 24 Old Bond Street, Mayfair, London W1S 4AP, UK
Welcome to the
The Zircon Industry Association (ZIA) is an independent industry association for the entire zirconium value chain, from zircon sand produced by mining and beneficiation to a wide range of downstream products, including zircon flour, opacifiers, refractory materials, fused zirconias and zirconium chemicals, metal and alloys.
Zircon is a versatile material and has various derivative forms.
ZIA completed the first ever global LCA for the use of zircon in the manufacture of ceramic tiles.
Zircon has unique properties, making it essential for a wide range of industrial and scientific applications.
Best practice guides for transporting zircon as a NORM.
ZIA aims to support members by providing guidance on best practice in the industry.
The handbook provides information on market statistics, uses and applications of zircon and emerging research and development.
The Zircon Industry Association has published additional guidance on the transport of zircon as a NORM.
The conference was attended by over 130 delegates, representing 96 organisations from 29 countries.
ZIA has published an updated edition of the 'Technical handbook on zirconium and zirconium compounds'.
