Title
Sri Lanka Ceramics - Official Portal of Sri Lankan Ceramic Industry
Description
The Ceramics Industry Cluster, formed in April 2001 in response to The Competitiveness Initiative Project. It was composed of Chief executive officers of manufacturers and suppliers from the three industry segments; senior officers of government agencies, such as the Board of Investment (“BOI”) and the Export Development Board (EDB); representatives from universities and research and testing organizations and former ceramics industry executives. Because the cluster included members from across the business “value chain” -government agencies, academia, and allied and supporting industries- it served as a proxy for the ceramics industry and as a special forum for examining and representing the interests and needs of the entire industry.
Given the successes seen at the cluster level, it was decided in April 2003, that an independent Apex body will be formed under the Companies Act of Sri Lanka and will be housed under the Ceylon Chamber of Commerce. The objectives, structure and areas of focus under this new body are stated in the following pages. For speedy and efficient decision making, all the members comprising the Sri Lanka Ceramics Council are to be CEO’s/Chairmen/Directors of ceramic manufacturing companies and Heads of Government Institutes/Universities/R&D Institutes.
2. To serve as the central forum for consensus building among Manufacturers, Research and Development Institutes, Universities, Government Institutes and others involved in the ceramics Industry and to promote high standards of business conduct.
