Semirom Refractory Mining Company, as one of the country’s leading refractory and ceramic material producers, actively participated in the side exhibition of the 14th Iran Ceramics Congress and supported the event as one of its sponsors. The congress, attended by university professors, researchers, graduate students, and industry professionals, provided an important platform for knowledge exchange and the presentation of the latest scientific and technological advancements in ceramics.
At the event, Semirom showcased its capabilities across the full value chain—from mining and raw material processing to refractory product manufacturing—and emphasized a knowledge-driven, R&D-focused approach. The company’s scientific focus included refractory raw materials, aluminosilicate refractories, thermomechanical property improvement, engineering design of refractory products, and the relationship between microstructure and performance under harsh operating conditions.
During the side exhibition, Semirom’s technical experts and representatives provided continuous support at the booth, offering specialized explanations, answering scientific and practical questions, and exploring collaborative research opportunities between industry and academia. These interactions were especially well-received following the presentation of the paper titled “Production and Characterization of Lightweight Chamotte Insulating Bricks Using Light Chamotte”, attracting professors and students in materials engineering, ceramics, and metallurgy.
Semirom’s support for the 14th Iran Ceramics Congress reflects its commitment to social responsibility, the development of local technical knowledge, strengthening industry-academia ties, and supporting applied research, highlighting the company’s long-term focus on innovation, education, and workforce development in the refractory and ceramics sector.
