Australasian Pozzolan Association
The Australian Pozzolan Association (APozA) is the national body representing the interests of the pozzolan industry.

Ash Development Association of Australia
Through the recognition of the potential end use benefits associated with the reuse of coal combustion products, Australian producers and marketers of coal ash formed the Ash Development Association of Australia (ADAA) in 1990. HBM Group was contracted to create appropriate governance structures, to initiate, analyse and disseminate fundamental R&D, undertake government advocacy as well as undertaking general administrative activities.
The Association has and continues to deliver on their objective of investigating and developing market opportunities for the use of these materials in various industry applications, particularly through increased awareness of the sustainable ecological benefits from increased usage.
The ADAA utilises our full range of services offered in our Comprehensive Professional Package.
Australasian (Iron & Steel) Slag Association
In 1990, various members representing producers, processors, marketers, customers and suppliers founded the Australasian (iron & steel) Slag Association (ASA). This association was formed through the facilitation of services by HBM Group, adopting a similar model to that used by the National Slag Association of the USA. With a recognised complex operating environment in Australia for slag products, strategic planning and governance advice were then used to create a unique operating model and governance structure.
Today, the Association has four major planks which underpin its strategic plan with objectives for Membership, Advocacy, Education and Technical.
Through research and facilitation of information exchange activities between relevant stakeholders, government and the community, the Association continues to increase the recognition and understanding of the beneficial use of iron and steel slags.
The ASA utilises our full range of services offered in our Comprehensive Professional Package.

Amorphous Silica Association of Australia
The Amorphous Silica Association of Australia (ASiAA) was formed in 2006 to provide formal representation and a voice for producers, processors, marketers and users that were comparative to other industry segments within the construction industry.
The primary activities of the ASiAA's charter are to increase the community, business and government awareness of the superior construction properties and value added benefits which are derived from the use of Amorphous Silica products in construction.
