MATHESON Acquires Majority Share of RASIRC
RASIRC to continue developing products that purify and deliver ultra pure chemistries
(PresseBox) (Basking Ridge, NJ and San Diego, Calif, )"This acquisition is consistent with our electronics and solar strategies to enhance our purification technology and product line," stated William J. Kroll, chairman and CEO of MATHESON. "RASIRC's membrane technology and purification techniques offer significant synergy, both to our purification products business and to our high purity material business, as liquid chemicals become increasingly critical components in the advanced technologies employed in the semiconductor industry."
RASIRC develops products that purify and deliver ultra-pure liquids and gases, with an initial focus on water vapor. Products include steam purification equipment, high temperature humidifiers, and vaporizers. RASIRC's patented seal and product designs enable fluid delivery and control of temperature, flow rate, and purity. This technology reduces cost, improves quality, and dramatically improves safety.
"RASIRC will continue to develop new and innovative products focused on in situ chemical generation of ultra high purity vapors from liquid chemical sources," said Jeffrey Spiegelman, RASIRC founder and president. "Having global infrastructure, logistics, and R&D, the MATHESON brand presence will assure customers that we have the size and stability to support them through a complete product adoption cycle - from bench top testing, to pilot line, and high volume."
