Founded in 1970, in the midst of the growth in the sales of metals on a global scale, the ICZ (Lead and Zinc Information Information Institute), became the access for producers, transformers and consumers to new and promising markets and technologies, which were still little known at that time.
With the inclusion of more products like nickel, copper, cobalt, silver, etc., in 1988, the association changed its name to ICZ (Non-Ferrous Metals Institute), definitively becoming an important entity of representation for the entire production chain with the government and international agencies.
The strong growth in domestic demand for non-ferrous metals led ICZ to aggregate to its initial technical characteristic, the search for alternatives that make it possible to increase local production and availability, as well as the search for a specific industrial policy, contributing to the development of domestic industry.
Today, ICZ's return to this work has the purpose of allying past experiences with new market concepts, providing its associates with assistance and access to new technologies and products, offering enhanced competitiveness to the entire production chain.
