MATERIAL PROPERTIES

Why Zirconia Ceramic for Jewelry

Exceptional Hardness

Zirconia ceramic ranks 8.5 on the Mohs scale — highly resistant to scratches, wear, and deformation in daily use.

Hypoallergenic

Chemically inert and nickel-free. Safe for sensitive skin — no allergic reactions or skin discoloration.

Color-Fast & Durable

Color is integrated throughout the material, not applied as a coating. Maintains appearance over years of wear.

Lightweight Comfort

Approximately 6.0 g/cm³ density — significantly lighter than stainless steel, providing comfortable all-day wear.

COLORS

Available Colors

Standard colors are produced in volume. Custom Pantone matching is available with dedicated color development runs.

OUR PROCESS

Manufacturing Process

01

Powder Preparation

High-purity zirconia (ZrO₂) powder is blended with stabilizers (Y₂O₃) and coloring agents to achieve target material properties.

02

Forming

Powder is pressed into molds using CNC-machined tooling, or injected via CIM (Ceramic Injection Molding) for complex geometries.

03

Sintering

Green bodies are sintered at 1400-1500°C in controlled atmosphere furnaces, achieving near-full density and final dimensions.

04

CNC Finishing

Sintered pieces are CNC-machined to final tolerances, drilled, engraved, or shaped as required by design specifications.

05

Polishing & QC

Multi-stage polishing achieves the specified surface finish. Each piece undergoes dimensional and visual inspection.

QUALITY CONTROL

Inspection Standards

Every production batch undergoes multi-stage quality inspection to ensure consistency and compliance with specifications.

  • Raw material composition verification
  • Dimensional accuracy measurement (CMM)
  • Surface finish quality assessment
  • Visual inspection for defects
  • Final packaging integrity check
