12th March - International Day of Ceramics!
Dear Ceramic Community,
We are pleased to announce that March 12, 2025, marks the first-ever International Day of Ceramics!
This initiative, led by the International Ceramics Federation (ICF), seeks to shine a light on the often-overlooked role of ceramics in our daily lives. While we use ceramic materials every day—whether in our smartphones, energy-efficient devices, medical implants, or even space technology—many people remain unaware of their importance.
The goal of establishing this day is to raise awareness of the vast range of ceramic materials and their remarkable properties, which support modern society in ways we often take for granted. By encouraging interest from young people, from elementary school students to university scholars, we hope to inspire the next generation to study ceramics and understand their significance.
This will help strengthen the ceramic industry, research, and academia, ensuring continued growth and innovation for years to come.
We wish you a nice International Day of Ceramics!
