Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) — Uzbekistan has become the first country in Central Asia to join the International Tungsten Industry Association (ITIA).

Membership in the organization grants Uzbekistan’s Technological Metals Combine (Uzbek Combinat of Technological Metals) access to market insights, analytical and statistical data, as well as participation in major international industry events.

This decision will strengthen Uzbekistan’s position in the global tungsten market and create new opportunities for collaboration with leading companies in the sector.
