W. C. Heraeus Expands Business Activities in Japan
Through this acquisition W. C. Heraeus will be able to tap further growth potential in the area of thin film technology in Japan, and also to expand its product portfolio in this regional market through adding the business units large area coating, magnetic data storage and electronic components. On top of that, the bond shop, which is well-established in this market, extends the range of products and special services for Japanese customers.
In a bond shop, the materials used for thin film coating - the so-called sputtering targets - are pre-mounted for the later installation in the high-vacuum coating plants. Thus, with an integrated local bond shop, special customer demands can be met with a high level of flexibility and efficiency.
The Thin Film Materials Division of W. C. Heraeus is a leading global player in the development, production and distribution of high-quality sputtering targets and physical vapor deposition materials for the thin film coating technology, especially in the market segments magnetic data storage, large area coating and electronic components. Typical application areas are architectural glass, the production of computer hard disk drives or computer chips.
