SCI Engineered Materials Receives $1 Million Thin Film Solar Order


Announced on 22 June 2009, SCI Engineered Materials Inc (Columbus, OH, USA), a manufacturer of ceramics and metals for advanced applications using physical vapour deposition, has received a $1 million order for Thin Film Solar products, which are expected to be manufactured and shipped during the second half of 2009.

SCI began developing additional products for Thin Film Solar in 2006 following several years as a materials supplier to that growing market. During the past two years the company accelerated the acquisition of manufacturing equipment to scale up its operations and also hired additional engineering and sales staff to specifically focus on Thin Film Solar. Currently, SCI is actively involved in the qualification process with several customers and has received a number of trial orders in 2009.

Dan Rooney, Chairman, President and CEO, stated: “We are pleased to receive this significant order for Thin Film Solar products. It underscores the progress we are making in this strategic market that exhibits exciting long-term growth potential. We are continuing to scale SCI’s manufacturing and service capabilities to capture a larger share of the global Thin Film Solar market”.
