Ceramics UK
Beyond the production of ceramic refractories essential to steel, glass, and other high-temperature industries, ceramics play a vital role in healthcare, technology, and everyday life. From medical devices to electrical components, ceramics underpin many of the products and processes we rely on daily.
Contrary to popular perception, the industry’s influence extends far beyond Stoke-on-Trent. With more than 150 ceramics sites spread across nearly every region, ceramics are a truly national asset.
Ceramics UK supports this diverse sector by acting as a central hub for knowledge, technical expertise, and advocacy. We contribute to government consultations, collaborate with key stakeholders, and ensure the voice of the industry is heard where it matters most.
As the sector faces ongoing challenges, Ceramics UK’s role in shaping policy and influencing critical decisions has never been more important. We are committed to ensuring that government recognises the essential role ceramics play, both in everyday life and in maintaining the strength, resilience, and diversity of the UK’s industrial landscape.
