History
The company was founded in 1932 as Park Royal Porcelain Limited. It changed its name first in 1984 to Morgan Matroc Limited, then in 2002 to Morgan Advanced Ceramics Limited, and most recently in 2011 to its current name.[1]
In 1964, Steatite & Porcelain Products Limited was acquired from Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI).[3] This company, based in Stourport, had been established in 1907 and acquired by ICI in 1941.[4]
Previously the company made electro-ceramic products such as piezoelectric components — this part of the business was sold to CeramTec in 2017.[5]
