About us
Launched in 1997, the UKQAA is a Trade Body that represents members involved in the supply or use of fly ash from pulverised coal fired power stations. It is well known that coal fired power production in the UK is expected to cease by 2025. Indeed, most stations will be closed well before this date. This has meant that both suppliers and users of fly ash are currently evaluating their future strategy and options. The UKQAA is working with key stakeholders including the Environment Agency and Planners to safeguard these strategic reserves as well as funding research into understanding the properties of landfilled fly ashes. The UKQAA represents UK producers and users of coal-fired power station ash products and promotes the application and use of quality ash. We provide technical, environmental, educational, scientific and legal expertise on the use of coal ash products and can help you get the right product for the right application.

Meet the speaker! Book your place now at www.ashtrans.global for this years ASHTRANS Conference in Prague, 2nd-3rd September and meet with our esteemed speakers and delegates. The UK is a market of interest with over 15Mt of Cement and Supplementary Cementitious Materials consumed per annum with a significant proportion served via Imports. The United Kingdom Quality Ash Association (UKQAA) consists of a membership of importers, producers, end users and technology companies with a vested interest in the supply chain for Quality Ash. Dr. Nigel Cooke will be providing a talk at #ASHTRANS2024 on the latest UK developments in a global context. He was appointed Director of the UKQAA in June 2017. Nigel has more than 30 years’ experience in the building materials sector, including time spent at Blue Circle Industries and Lafarge. During his time with Blue Circle and Lafarge, he was seconded to business units in Singapore, Malaysia, Chile, and Switzerland. He also spent 2 years at the Lafarge HQ in Paris working on Group cementitious strategy. So alongside his current role focused on Quality Ash he also has a wealth of knowledge in the wider sector. His first experience with Coal Derived Fly Ash (CDFA) was when he was Executive Director for Supermix Concrete Malaysia though, over the period 1999 to 2010 whilst in the UK, he was responsible for developing CDFA partnerships with ScottishPower (ScotAsh), RWE (CelticAsh) and EDF (ProAsh). In addition to numerous environmental accolades, ScotAsh won two Queens Awards for Innovation and the Environment. Nigel has responsibility for representing the UKQAA and its membership to industry and is actively engaged in research and promoting the use of recovered CDFA as a result of legacy stockpiles from UK Coal Fired Power Stations. #SuplementaryCementitiousMaterials #flyash #UK #internationaltrading #harvesting #beneficiation #cement #expertspeaker ASHES Transglobal Magazine UKQAA ASHTRANS Conferences

Great to see Graham Sargeant member of our technical committee explaining the long term durability and strength of Aircrete Blocks #sustainability #lifecycle #qualityash #aircrete
H+H aircrete blocks are routinely tested for their compressive strength in our factories. Watch our video to see how our blocks maintain their strength, even after 45 years. ⌛ Don't settle for anything less than the best - choose H+H for your next build. https://lnkd.in/ezgzkfUs
How Strong is Aircrete?
