Berlin, Germany, August 5th, 2019:<\/strong><\/p>\n Deal expands Atotech\u2019s product portfolio<\/strong><\/p>\n Atotech today announced that it has acquired J-KEM International (\u201cJ-KEM\u201d), based in Rosersberg, Sweden. J-KEM is a global supplier of high-quality chemical products and processes for the printed circuit board and general metal finishing industries. J-KEM\u2019s strong technology and customer relationships complement Atotech\u2019s product portfolio and will help expand addressable markets and drive future growth.<\/p>\n All existing services of J-KEM\u2019s have been seamlessly continued by Atotech, effective August 1st. Additionally, J-KEM\u2019s customers now have full access to Atotech\u2019s regional and global product development, production and technical support capabilities, including its world class and accredited material science and analytical services.<\/p>\n Geoff Wild, Atotech\u2019s Chief Executive Officer, commented, \u201cWe are thrilled to add J-KEM\u2019s strong products and technologies to Atotech. We see substantial opportunities to further grow our business with this set of new and excellent products. In particular, J-KEM brings to us a graphite process that gives superior performance, an accelerator-free system in collaboration with an EDTA electroless copper process, as well as a palladium-based direct metallization process. These additional capabilities will help expand our reach into exciting growth markets like flex-PCBs and exotic materials. J-KEM\u2019s strong reputation for technical performance fits well with our unique solution-based approach that combines a comprehensive offer of proprietary process chemicals and equipment with best local service.<\/p>\n \u201cThis acquisition is representative of our strategy to drive growth and expand the scope of our technology so we can address a greater share of the market. We will continue to look for opportunities that make us a more important partner to our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n Johan Lundqvist, J-KEM\u2019s Chief Executive Officer, added, \u201cWe are pleased J-KEM is joining the Atotech family, as it makes sense for both sides. J-KEM will contribute to Atotech\u2019s portfolio, and existing J-KEM customers will benefit from Atotech\u2019s best-in-class service. We look forward to being part of the Atotech team.\u201d<\/p>\n Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Atotech today announced that it has acquired J-KEM International (\u201cJ-KEM\u201d), based in Rosersberg, Sweden.
