Company
Quebec City, Quebec
SCALIUM+ is a Quebec City materials company, acquired by Scandium Canada in June 2026, developing and commercializing aluminum-scandium alloy formats for additive manufacturing, sporting goods, aerospace and satellite structures.
Last reviewed Sep 17, 2026
Decision snapshot
Scalium+ offers a Canadian route to evaluate aluminum-scandium materials with a named commercial sheet application at Ferreol Skis. Its powder and wire lines broaden the manufacturing options, while the CSA thick-plate program remains a separate research pathway. The next conversation should match material form and processing conditions to qualification requirements, lot capacity and supply commitments; ski use does not establish aerospace acceptance.

Lower-mass satellite structures could enable greater payload capacity for sensing missions, but no northern payload, platform integration or mission-specific qualification is publicly established.
Organization context
The buying path depends on material form: rolled sheet has a named ski-product application, while powders and wire require process-specific qualification. The parent reports preliminary SC7075 WAAM trials with deposition optimization still underway. Aerospace thick plate is a separate development program; buyers should specify alloy, temper, forming process and acceptance criteria.
The business operates from Quebec City, Quebec, where the Canadian Space Agency lists Ferreol Technologies and where SCALIUM+ says its team and workflow continue following the acquisition.
Recent activity
Dated Aug 17, 2026
On August 17, 2026, the Canadian Space Agency amended Ferreol Technologies' existing contribution agreement to recognize SCALIUM+ as beneficiary of a C$348,750 project scaling and validating thick aluminum-scandium plate for satellite applications through May 31, 2028.

FST chrome-free aluminum surface treatment
What it enables
Scalium+ identifies FST as its chrome-free aluminum surface-treatment platform. The company reports scaling production of a treatment intended to improve adhesion and bonding interfaces.
Public record
Dated participation, delivery roles, partnerships, and disclosed funding provide the operating context behind the profile.
Space Technology Development Program contribution recipient
Canadian Space Agency
The Canadian Space Agency awarded Ferreol Technologies a contribution to adapt and validate Scalium for aerospace-scale plate production; the record does not establish flight qualification or procurement.
CSA STDP research contribution
$348,750
CSA agreement 25STDPY09 provides CAD 348,750 for thick-plate manufacturing scale-up, characterization and proof of concept from August 29, 2025 to May 31, 2028. The August 2026 beneficiary amendment continues the original award; it is not additional funding.
Prepare the conversation
Which alloy, temper and processing conditions support the specification for the requested sheet, powder or wire?
The portfolio spans distinct material forms; published powder strength figures do not identify compatible test conditions.
What repeatable lot size, lead time and traceability can be offered beyond the Ferreol Skis sheet application?
Ferreol Skis is a named commercial use, but this does not establish production capacity or availability for other formats.
Which test standard and integrator acceptance milestone will the CSA thick-plate project deliver?
Agreement 25STDPY09 funds scale-up and proof of concept through May 2028, without identifying flight qualification or a named aerospace buyer.
Which granted or pending patent identifiers and current feedstock arrangements apply to the proposed material?
Patent wording varies across company pages, while the parent describes Crater Lake as a future source; neither establishes current assured supply.
