Precision Ceramics, a division of McGeoch Technology, is a company dedicated to the engineering of technical ceramics and offers a complete service from procurement and supply through to technical design and specialist machining.

Since its formation in 1992, Precision Ceramics has gained a reputation for quality and service with specialist ceramic components engineered by the company finding their way into an ever-widening array of worldwide applications in industries as diverse as aerospace, opto-electronics and nuclear power.

In both new applications and in areas where technical ceramics are already being used, Precision Ceramics has the necessary expertise and in-depth knowledge to quickly find the best way forward for any potential application from prototypes through to full-scale production of components. And once fully up and running, the company can easily take the process one stage further by offering expert advice in the engineering of more demanding materials.

When McGeoch first introduced technical ceramics into their product range, they quickly became a principal UK distributor for Macor^®, a unique machinable glass ceramic manufactured exclusively in the USA by Corning Incorporated. Other major distributorships quickly followed in both the UK and further afield. Nowadays, Precision Ceramics, headed by Managing Director, Steve Swallow, offers many other specialist materials to complement its operation. These include Shapal™ Machinable Aluminium Nitride, Boron Nitride, Alumina, Zirconia, Pyrophyllite and Silicon Carbide.

Precision Ceramics  has extensive in-house machining facilities to enable us to manufacture ceramic components to the highest specifications. A fully controlled inspection facility with co-ordinated measurement system accurate to 0.02mm is also in operation to ensure that our rigorous quality standards are maintained at all times.

Precision Ceramics specialises in small batches between 1 and 2,000 pieces but are quite happy to tender for larger quantities.

The company operates to the very highest quality standards and holds BS EN ISO 9001:2000 and BASEEFA approval.
