Why Ceramics?
Technology has advanced at an extraordinarily fast pace. From raw material production to end use, the requirements on industrial and commercial technologies and equipment have developed equally rapidly. Design engineers are consistently looking for ways to improve performance in systems where strength, extreme temperatures, electrical insulation, chemical resistance, and other demands are persistent factors. Metal and polymer technologies can’t always meet the stringent levels of material performance needed in many of today’s advanced applications.

ac Development launches first phase of coorstek redevelopment project in downtown golden
AC Development, a Golden, CO-based master and vertical developer, has initiated the first phase of the large-scale mixed-use redevelopment of the CoorsTek manufacturing facility in downtown Golden. The new district covers five city blocks and will be anchored by a new global headquarters for CoorsTek. It will account for approximately 1.25 million square feet of office, multi-family residential, placemaking retail, and hotel space.
AC Development, privately-owned and operated by the fifth generation of the Coors family, successfully shepherded the largest redevelopment project in downtown Golden's history through unanimous approval last month of a comprehensive redevelopment plan and rezoning by Golden's City Council.The council vote was the culmination of a more than year-long process that involved close collaboration with City staff, over one-hundred community meetings, four planning commission meetings, and a six-hour council hearing.
