Alpha HPA

16/10/2026

Australia has an important role to play in the global advanced materials supply chain, and Alpha HPA is proud to be part of it.

Our Technical Sales and Customer Support Manager, Dr Khadija Alsabawi, will speak at the Advanced Materials & Battery Summit 2026 next week.

Her presentation will share a short Alpha HPA case study on what it takes to move an Australian advanced material from a processing plant in regional Queensland into global supply chains.

Our story is about more than making the material. It’s about connecting Australian manufacturing capability with customers and markets around the world.

Hear from Alpha HPA and others working across Australia’s advanced materials and battery sector.

Ahead of Semiconductor Australia 2026, Alpha HPA Managing Director Rob Williamson joined the Ruthless Ventures Podcast with hosts Stef Winwood and Rama Razy to discuss the growing importance of ultra-high purity materials in the global semiconductor supply chain, the role of materials innovation in AI and advanced computing, and Australia's place in the next generation of semiconductor manufacturing.

Rob will continue the conversation next week as part of Every Layer Counts: Materials, Manufacturing and Microchips at Semiconductor Australia 2026.

Progress across our Stage Two construction site continues, with work advancing across multiple areas as we move closer to operations.

While major milestones often attract attention, much of the work that keeps a project moving happens through thousands of small tasks completed safely, consistently and in the right sequence. Every pour, installation, connection, test and inspection contributes to the bigger picture. Each activity brings the facility another step closer to completion.

Managing Director Rob Williamson joined industry leaders at the AusIMM Critical Minerals Conference last month to share Alpha HPA’s experience scaling ultra-high purity materials for semiconductor and AI applications.

The presentation focused on both the challenge and opportunity of moving from innovation to commercial production, delivering the consistency, repeatability and operational discipline required by global technology supply chains.

Building globally competitive advanced manufacturing capability requires more than innovation. It takes engineering expertise, operational precision and a long-term commitment to industrial ex*****on. It also requires developing the workforce that can support it, creating new technical, operational and manufacturing capabilities in regional Australia.

Alpha HPA is demonstrating what this transition looks like in practice. Demand for our products continues to exceed available production volumes, reinforcing the value of building an advanced materials business capable of delivering qualification-ready products consistently at scale.

For the past three years, Alpha HPA has relied on specialist laboratories interstate to verify the absence of trace impurities in our products, testing that is required by customers in semiconductor and other advanced technology applications. That capability is now available in Gladstone, significantly reducing testing turnaround times while lowering the cost of external analysis.

Alpha HPA has commissioned a new PerkinElmer NexION 5000 ICP-MS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer), one of the world's most advanced analytical instruments.

Previously, specialist testing for uranium and thorium was undertaken externally, with samples sent to Perth and results often taking up to six weeks to be returned. Bringing this capability in-house will significantly reduce turnaround times, giving our team faster access to the analytical data needed to support product quality, operations and customer requirements.

The ICP-MS can detect impurities at ultra-trace levels and is currently being used to analyse Alpha HPA products for uranium and thorium, helping verify the purity of our materials for demanding applications, including semiconductors.

Laboratory Superintendent Ronald Janssen said the commissioning of the ICP-MS represents more than the addition of a new piece of equipment.

"Advanced analytical capability is often concentrated in major capital cities. Having this technology available in Gladstone allows us to build specialist expertise in regional Queensland while supporting the quality and performance requirements of global customers."

As the HPA First Facility continues to ramp up, the new capability will provide significantly faster access to analytical data, supporting product quality, market requirements and future operational growth.

As construction activity continues at our HPA First Facility, looking out for each other remains the priority.

Senior HSE Advisor Jody Shailer shares in this reel how Alpha HPA is managing safety as contractor numbers grow and work scopes expand across Stage Two construction.

With more activities happening simultaneously, safety relies on clear procedures, good communication and a workforce that stays aware of what's happening around them. Our people have focused on making safety processes effective and practical, while recognising the people who help create a culture where everyone goes home safe.
