The ICF was established in 1990 as a nongovernmental, nonprofit federation of societies representing ceramists, ceramic engineers and ceramic scientists of the member countries. In 2005 it was agreed that ICF would be restructured. Over the coming months the web pages will be updated as new structures are established.
