About ACE Precision Ceramics UK

Advanced Ceramic Engineering Ltd specialise in alumina bodies for high grade and purity alumina ceramics. These ceramics are often referred to as ‘precision ceramics’, technical ceramics, high-tec ceramics, advanced ceramics or engineered ceramics.

Our range of alumina materials has been developed to suit diverse service conditions required by electronics, aerospace, chemical processing and other high-tech industries such as vacuum and semi-conductor, pump and valve, lasers and medical, and chemical and wear applications.

Advanced Ceramic Engineering Ltd, or ACE for short, was formed following the closure of the former Wade / Seagoe Ceramics plant in Craigavon, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom. . Most of our employees are ex Seagoe – some with over 40 years experience in the production and design of precision and technical ceramics.

ACE was formed in 2002, and in many ways shares a lot of production similarities to Seagoe / Wade, such as manufacture from raw milled alumina, right through to isostatic pressing, ‘green’ machining, sintering and diamond grinding. The combined expertise of decades of tried and trusted methods, coupled along with the latest innovations and an experienced workforce, make ACE a very formidable and ‘cutting edge’ company in the field of precision and technical ceramics.
