Administrative / Biographical History
The Scottish Metal Refiners Association was formed at a meeting on 21 January 1919 in the offices of their appointed secretaries, Thomson McLintock & Co , chartered accountants, Glasgow, Scotland. It was formed to fix prices and composition weights of ash metal. The committee met every month. The organisation's name was changed on 18 September 1939 to the Scottish Non-Ferrous Metals Association .

The merchants' section of the association was discontinued on 24 December 1954 and the association itself was wound up on the 18 December 1956 .
