Applications

Applications for thin metal foils

  • Electronics

    Electrical components

    Flexible circuits, EMI/RFI shielding and connectors, using the foils’ electrical conductivity and precise tolerances.

  • Aerospace

    Aerospace and defence

    Lightweight, strong foils for sensors, shielding and other components that must perform in extreme conditions.

  • Medical

    Medical devices

    Precision-cut foils for surgical instruments, implants and diagnostic equipment, where biocompatibility and precision matter.

  • Automotive

    Automotive

    Battery components, sensors and fuel cells, improving efficiency and performance.

  • Energy

    Energy

    Solar panels, fuel cells and battery technologies, using the foils’ conductive and durable properties.

  • Industrial

    Industrial

    Gaskets, shims and spacers that need precise thickness and durability.
