Member Promotion TIG enables members to raise their profile in the titanium industry. In addition to direct interaction with other TIG members through quarterly meetings, TIG provides an online suppliers directory which is widely promoted across the metals and manufacturing industry through NAMTEC’s extensive network of contacts.


Strengthening Links between Academia and Industry TIG is renowned for strengthening links between academia and industry. Offering heavily discounted rates for academic members, TIG enables researchers at all levels the opportunity to discuss their research, improve their awareness of the industry and increase their exposure to potential sponsors and employers. Likewise, TIG offers industrial members the opportunity to engage with high-calibre prospective future recruits through interacting with universities.


Technical Helpline TIG members benefit from receipt of technical enquires which are directed through a manned helpline managed by NAMTEC’s experienced technical team. The helpline is widely promoted through NAMTEC’s extensive networks of contacts and captures enquiries from across the metals and manufacturing industry. Enquiries which are relevant and valuable to TIG Members are forwarded on to an appropriate contact, enabling members to engage with new market opportunities.


All Benefits of NAMTEC Manufacturing Forum membership TIG members are entitled to all the benefits of NAMTEC Manufacturing Forum membership, and therefore benefit from engagement with the wider manufacturing community beyond titanium.
