Our structure

How we are organised

Member company representatives are at the heart of the ICDA structure. The ICDA Council, composed of elected members that represent a spread of geographical regions and chrome industry sectors, defines the strategy of the Association. Our Management Committee oversees the implementation of the strategy by the ICDA team for the benefit of members and the industry, while standing committees, made up of member company representatives, cover areas that are critical for the ICDA and chromium industry. The General Assembly is in charge of voting on important and strategic decisions for the Association.
