Company Profile
ZIRCAR Ceramics, Inc. (ZCI) began operations July 1, 2000. It was formed when its successor ZIRCAR Products, Inc. (ZPI) was reorganized. ZIRCAR Ceramics was established as a separate and independent company to better serve its customers and to continue the business of ZPI’s Vacuum Formed Products profit center. Since its inception, ZCI has been successfully engaged in the Design, Development, Manufacture, and Sales of High Temperature Insulation, Heaters, and Refractory Products.
ZIRCAR Products, Inc. was founded in 1974 by Bernie H. Hamling when he obtained a license to manufacture the refractory oxide materials he developed as Development Manager in the Corporate Research Department of Union Carbide Corporation. Among the 12 US patents involved, methods of manufacturing textiles of metal oxides, nitrides and carbides were included. Mr. Hamling’s work won him two 1968 IR 100 Awards from Industrial Research Magazine. He set up operations in the village of Florida, New York – about one hour northwest of New York City.
