Oerlikon Balzers has long pursued a strategy of investing in growth and expanding the wide range of systems, coating solutions and services it offers with the aim of providing efficient and customized solutions for its customers. This acquisition represents another firm step in that direction. Each new acquisition increases the company footprint and contributes to its global presence – with 108 coating centres and development/ engineering sites worldwide, Oerlikon Balzers is close to its customers no
matter where they are.
Oerlikon has acquired Sucotec AG, a Swiss manufacturer specializing in CVD (Chemical Vapour Deposition) equipment for the tools market.
The acquisition enhances the range of products and services provided by Liechtenstein-based coating specialist Oerlikon Balzers, which focuses on PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) and PACVD (Plasma Assisted Chemical Vapour Deposition).
