In
1990, members representing producers, processors, marketers,
customers, and suppliers founded the Australasian (iron & steel) Slag Association
Inc.
Modeled
on its sister organisation, the National Slag Association in the USA,
the ASA's charter is to
provide technical information, and support the increased use of iron and steel slag’s,
as a material of choice in the construction and other potential end use industries.
In choosing a name for the Association, the term Australasian was
used to recognise the Association’s reach and acknowledge the members
scattered across the region, including New Zealand, Singapore, and
Malaysia.
An International Deputy Chairperson represents members outside
Australia at board level. Currently our New Zealand producer member
SteelServ (NZ) holds this
position.
A list of our Association
members
provides an indication of the comprehensive scope and level of representation our Association provides on matters regarding slag.
