McDanel Announces Name Change to Support Expansion of Material Capabilities

BEAVER FALLS, Pa., Feb. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Today McDanel announced its recent name change, transitioning from McDanel Advanced Ceramic Technologies to McDanel Advanced Material Technologies. This decision is aligned with McDanel's strategic plan to expand its technology portfolio, historically focused on high-purity tubular advanced ceramics, to include a broader range of material technologies that will extend McDanel's expertise and broaden its reputation as a comprehensive materials solutions provider for a broad range of applications in the Aerospace, Defense, Medical, and Semiconductor markets.

McDanel's high purity Alumina, Mullite, fully stabilized Zirconia, and Sialon products are used in many applications where it is necessary to provide a protective atmosphere, in corrosive environments, at high temperatures without contamination. While these ceramics will continue to be foundational among the McDanel Material Solutions portfolio, active listening and problem solving for its customers and partners have solidified the case for expansion.

"Our vision is to be the premier technical partner in Advanced Materials for the design and development of mission-critical solutions that push the frontiers of human health, mobility, connectivity, and security," said McDanel's CEO Mike Ingram. "We can do this by expanding our technology portfolio and scientific expertise to include materials and capabilities with existing adjacency to essential industries that already deploy our legacy ceramic solutions. Changing our company name to reflect the expansion plan is a critical step forward."

In addition to the name change, McDanel recently launched a new website that reflects its strategic vision.
