Materion Microelectronics & Services Increases Precision Parts Cleaning Capacity with Addition of New Facility in Albuquerque, New Mexico

Date Announced: 21 Sep 2012

Positions Materion to service thin-film deposition customers including optics, PV and LED, across US.

BUFFALO, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Materion Microelectronics & Services, a unit of Materion Corporation (MTRN), has opened a new facility in Mesa del Sol, New Mexico, near Albuquerque to provide precision parts cleaning and surface treatment of physical vapor deposition (PVD) shield kits for customers in the West.

The facility complements Materion’s recently expanded Wheatfield, New York site, near Buffalo. The two sites support key customers who require these services in such technically demanding industries as: wireless, LEDs, medical consumables, hard disk drive (HDD), semiconductor, data storage, optics and photovoltaics.

The Mesa del Sol facility offers regional customers a more convenient location with the benefit of reduced shipping time and costs, as well as aggressive lead times. Traditional removal technologies are offered in conjunction with innovative cleaning methods that can target complex deposition stacks from a specific industry.

With its vertically integrated “cradle-to-grave” solutions-based services, Materion is unique in the industry. It is the only global provider of thin film deposition materials, parts cleaning services, and precious metal recovery and refining. With that combination, it offers broad engineering expertise and breadth of experience to help customers through all stages of precision parts cleaning, from parts qualification through final precious metal settlement.

Related to the enlarged capacity, Jim McMullen, Materion Product Manager-Precision Parts Cleaning Service, commented, “We are greatly pleased with the addition of Mesa del Sol and the customer service experience we can now offer. Having a regional facility means faster turnaround and a regional precious metal refining solution to enhance the metal management model. This expansion further demonstrates our commitment to being our customers’ first choice.”
