swissceramics has around 300 active and professional members throughout Switzerland, in addition to collective members (schools/institutions) and sponsoring or honorary members.

You can ask for membership using the form below or by filling out the "Application form for membership" (only versions in French or German) digitally under downloads and sending it to the secretariat together with the required documents.

After the application for membership has been effectively received, the swissceramics board will decide on the definitive admission.


They are accepted as active members:

• Category 1: Candidates who have obtained the Swiss Federal Certificate of Competence in a ceramic enterprise or in one of the three vocational schools in Switzerland.

• Category 2: Candidates with equivalent training abroad.
The board checks the validity of their documents and references.

• Category 3: Autodidacts who practice a ceramic profession.
The application must be submitted in writing by three Ceramic Members (formerly 'Active Members') to the board of swissceramics.

Swiss citizens can become ceramic members, regardless of whether they live and/or work in Switzerland or abroad.
Foreign nationals can become ceramic members if they live and/or work in Switzerland.
