We at Ceramic Industry continually strive to respond to the evolving needs of our readers and online community. Toward that end, I’m excited to announce that we’ve updated our website to incorporate responsive design. This means that you’ll be better able to access the content you need, whether you’re at your PC or laptop, on a tablet or your smart phone. This short video details some of the site's exciting features. Please take a look at www.ceramicindustry.com and let me know what you think!

In addition, we have two special projects coming up that we need your responses for: the CI Top 10 and the CI Readers’ Choice Video Awards. Featured in the September 2015 issue, our exclusive CI Top 10 listing will rank the leading worldwide manufacturers of advanced ceramics, glasses and refractories. In order to be considered for inclusion, companies are invited to complete a brief survey at www.ceramicindustry.com/CITop10form. Please complete the survey by July 15, and feel free to contact me with any questions.
