Soleras Ltd., a Biddeford, Maine, supplier of rotary targets used for coating
glass, has signed an agreement with Applied Films China to sell Soleras Rotary
targets.
The market in China has been growing very fast and demand for rotary targets
is at an all-time high, points out Dean Plaisted, president of Soleras.
"The targets will fill an ever-increasing demand for high-quality flat
glass products for both today and the future," Plaisted says. "This
emerging market provides an excellent opportunity for both Soleras and Applied
Films China."
Soleras supplies sputtering targets for magnetron sputter and arc coating systems
around the world. Applied Films provides thin film deposition equipment for architectural,
automotive and solar glass.
