Element Six is a global leader in the design, development and production of synthetic diamond and tungsten carbide super materials. Part of the De Beers Group, we employ over 1,900 people. Our primary manufacturing sites are located in the UK, Ireland, Germany, South Africa, and the US.
Our mission
We strive to deliver extreme performance through the development of cutting-edge synthetic diamond and tungsten carbide solutions.
Our history
Since 1959, our focus has been on developing the diamond synthesis process to enable innovative synthetic diamond and tungsten carbide solutions. As well as being the planet’s hardest material, diamond’s extreme and diverse properties give it high tensile strength, chemical inertness, broad optical transmission and very high thermal conductivity.
Our vision
With access to the most sophisticated R&D technology and the best minds in the business, the future is full of possibilities.
Employment Equity & Inclusion and Diversity
We are committed to fostering a vibrant workplace culture that is inclusive and embraces our diversity, where we value and respect every colleague for who they are and provide equality of opportunity so that everyone can fulfil their potential and thrive.
