Evatec expands Asian sales and service network

Following the acquisition in December of the semiconductor & nanotechnology business of Oerlikon's Advanced Technologies Segment, Evatec Ltd of Flums, Switzerland (which makes thin-film deposition and etch processing equipment for semiconductor, MEMS, optical and optoelectronic applications) has completed the next step of its growth plans for Asia by signing an agency agreement with Zurich-based global services supplier DKSH for sales and service support of its range of thin-film production platforms regarding customers in China and Taiwan. 

"DKSH is already recognised as number-1 in the delivery of high-quality market expansion services [with a focus on Asia], and the agreement brings us access to its market know-how and experienced sales and service professionals," comments Evatec's CEO Andreas Waelti. "They are the perfect partner for supporting the growth of our business in next-generation UBM [under-bump metal] solutions with unparalleled throughput and plasma-damage-free gallium nitride (GaN) sputter processing solutions for our customers in advanced packaging, power semiconductors and LED," he adds.
