Siltronic AG

Success through Silicon Siltronic AG ranks as one of the global semiconductor market leaders and is recognized as one of the technology leaders in the design and production of highly specialized silicon wafers. We are a stock-listed company (MDAX, TecDAX: WAF) with a long tradition and are internationally positioned and strategically close to our customers. We stand for uncompromising quality, innovation, efficiency and precision. All over the world, wafers made of hyperpure silicon form the basis of the highly complex semiconductor elements driving high voltage applications, low-resistivity circuits for automotive engineering and telecommunications, as well as highly integrated microprocessors and memory components for information processing. Without silicon wafers, everyday objects such as smartphones, computers, navigation systems, and displays, would be inconceivable. At the same time, the demands made on today's modern wafers are more varied and individual than ever before. Employing a workforce of around 4,500 members of staff, Siltronic commands a global network of advanced, leading edge production plants in Asia, Europe and the USA, including today's most advanced, leading edge production facilities for 200 mm and 300 mm wafers in Singapore.
