NEC Electronics America's Roseville, CA semiconductor complex has awarded a ten-year contract for the supply of bulk gases to Praxair Electronics, a division of Praxair Inc. The new contract retains Praxair's 22 year association with NEC's Roseville fabs, which include a 150mm and a 200mm facility that was originally planned to be a 300mm facility back in 1998.
"Praxair has been a supplier and partner to NEC Electronics America for many years, providing high-quality products and services. We are confident in Praxair's capabilities as a world-class supplier and in its commitment to quality and safety," said Gabe Kim, vice president, manufacturing operations, NEC Electronics America.
Praxair has been supplying semiconductor process gases, gas handling equipment, sputtering targets and services for on-site distribution and management of chemicals and bulk and process gases to NEC Electronics America's manufacturing facility in Roseville for 22 years, since the 150mm fab opened in 1984.
"We are proud to have been chosen to continue supplying gases and services to NEC Electronics America to meet its expansion needs in Roseville," said Ray Roberge, president, Praxair Electronics. "We value the depth and quality of this relationship and appreciate NEC Electronics America's vote of confidence in Praxair Electronics."
