Air Products and PVS Chemicals Belgium NV have signed an
agreement for the supply of high purity sulphuric acid to the European
electronics market. PVS Chemicals recently began production of
ultra-pure sulphuric acid at its site in Gent, Belgium. The Belgian
location is well positioned to serve customers throughout continental
Europe.
The new plant is supported by a new clean room
laboratory, which enables a full service offering. The plant has the
production capacity to meet a significant portion of the growing market
demand.
"PVS brings 20 years experience of producing high purity sulphuric acid
for the semiconductor industry together with a new state of the art
facility, located in Belgium," stated Simon Earnshaw, General Manager,
Air Products Electronics Europe. "It will provide cost effective supply
chain solutions for both bulk and packaged materials... Air Products'
experience in handling and delivering products and services to the
microelectronics industry combined with PVS's technical ability to
produce high purity sulphuric acid will support customers' requirements
in terms of quality, packaging solutions, delivery and cost of
ownership."
