Materials for micromanufacturing
Potomac Photonics has joined the Goodfellow family, combining microfabrication expertise with advanced materials supplied to science and industry since 1946.
Materials and micromanufacturing from one group
With a long history of helping clients develop miniature products and bring them to market quickly, Potomac Photonics now combines its expertise with Goodfellow’s work in materials science.
Goodfellow has supplied science and industry worldwide since 1946, contributing to projects from cochlear implants to the ignition of nuclear fusion. Its aim is to be a partner for every specialist material, designed, manufactured and delivered globally.
Together, Potomac’s microfabrication and Goodfellow’s materials expertise help accelerate product development across a wide range of industries.
