ZrSpeed
Isostatic Medical Grade Zirconia.
ZrSpeed was the first open brand zirconia to be offered in the UK over thirteen years ago so now has a proven track record and is our most popular framework. It is an isostatic, medical grade zirconia and has a flexural strength of more that 1200 MPa.
ZrSpeed has been used as a premium zirconia product since 2007 and is currently used by many Technicians around the UK for their metal free work.

Why Isostatic
Many zirconias are pressed in only one direction. This is called uniaxial pressing and produces blocks that are inconsistent in density from one part of the material to the other. This results in uneven shrinkage which can lead to poorly fitting margins and can produce chips and microcracks.
ZrSpeed is isostatic, which means it is pressed from all directions. This results in an even density over the whole block and can be relied on to produce consistent and accurate margins whether milling single units or large spans. Isostatically pressed zirconia is more expensive to produce but is essential for a guaranteed marginal fit, strength and longevity.
