Scandium Canada Announces deployment if  Scalium Alloy in Ferreol Skis' Entire 2026-2027 Collection

Scandium Canada ( announced that its Scalium® aluminum‑scandium alloy, commercialized by subsidiary Scalium+, is being integrated into every ski in Ferreol Skis' newly launched 2026‑2027 collection. Thin 0.4 mm Scalium® sheets are used throughout the line as an alternative to long‑standing high‑strength aluminum sheets.

According to Ferreol Skis, Scalium improves on‑snow performance, durability and eco‑responsibility, and is also used in its defence‑oriented ski line for extreme and arctic environments. The collection will be deployed in several international markets, including France, providing a large‑scale commercial demonstration of Scalium+ alloys and supporting Scandium Canada’s mine‑to‑alloy strategy.

  • Scalium used in all Ferreol 2026‑2027 skis, providing a high‑volume commercial demonstration for Scalium+ alloys

  • Adoption in defence‑industry ski line for extreme and arctic environments, including use for Canadian Defence and NATO‑allied countries

  • International market deployment of Ferreol Skis' new collection, including France, expands global exposure for Scalium® alloys

This large-scale commercial deployment marks an important milestone for the Company.

Ferreol Skis, which has contributed to the development of Scalium in recent years alongside the Ferreol Technologies team, now Scalium+, is integrating the alloy across its entire collection in the form of thin 0.4 mm sheets.

According to Ferreol Skis, Scalium delivers concrete benefits in on-snow performance (stability, edge grip, vibration damping), durability (bonding quality, high resistance to deformation) and eco-responsibility, with the aluminum sourced from Québec, Canada.

Ferreol Skis also presents Scalium as an alternative to the high-strength aluminum sheets that have been used in the ski industry for more than 40 years.

"This announcement by Ferreol Skis is concrete proof that the market is ready for our aluminum-scandium alloys," said Guy Bourassa, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Scandium Canada. "This is exactly what our mine-to-alloy strategy is designed to do: create value with our alloys today, while advancing the Crater Lake project as a primary source of scandium in North America."

"Skiing is a demanding test bench: high mechanical stress and extreme conditions," added Félix Lapointe, CEO of Scalium+. "Ferreol Skis took part in the development of Scalium® and is now integrating it at volume into a commercial product. This milestone demonstrates our ability to transform an idea to a commercial alloy that is used into real products and supports our qualification efforts in other sectors, including aeronautics, automotive and the defence industry."

"With Scalium®, Ferreol Skis is not following industry standards, we are redefining them. Today is not only the launch of a new ski collection, but also proof that expertise developed here in Canada can give rise to innovations capable of transforming several industries worldwide, from skiing to aerospace," said Jonathan Audet, co-founder and CEO of Ferreol Skis.

Ferreol Skis also indicated that Scalium is used in the construction of its ski line designed for the defence industry, a mobility solution for extreme and arctic environments developed for the Canadian Defence and NATO allied countries. Ferreol Skis' new collection will also be deployed across several international markets, including France.
