For more than half a century, hyperpure silicon has been the raw material of choice in microelectronics. As the basis for virtually all semiconductor devices, it forms the foundation of the world’s electronic industry. It is also the foundation of our hyperpure silicon wafers used for extremely complex semiconductor components as well as in highly integrated microprocessors and memory components for information processing. Today they are deployed in increasingly compact structures, allowing the production of more and more powerful and energy efficient computer chips and cutting edge power semiconductors.

Our extensive product portfolio enables us to supply, among others, the leading twenty companies in the semiconductor industry - with whom we cultivate close business relations that have evolved over long years in many cases. Joining forces, we engage in a process-based approach in developments meeting tomorrow’s advanced requirements. This will allow us to fulfil our ambitious aspirations as an innovative technology leader delivering perfect wafers – wafers that also satisfy the most sophisticated technological demands of the dynamic semiconductor sector, while continuously improving and finessing our current solutions. We manufacture polished and epitaxial wafers in accordance with the latest design rules. Some 1,870 patents and patent applications underscore our outstanding innovative strengths.

We maintain a global network of manufacturing facilities in Asia, Europe and the USA. All sites are strategically close to our customers and have access to extremely well trained workforces.
