service base, as well as add significant capacity for the dedicated manufacturing of high-quality precursors to support the burgeoning High Brightness LED (HBLED) market and ALD and CVD precursors for the silicon semiconductor market.
Increased focus on improving efficiency and reducing energy costs through technology and design advances is driving the electronics sector to roll out more ‘energy-conscious’ products and systems. Due to the resulting exponential rise in demand for LEDs, and in particular HBLEDs that are used in applications such as backlighting in flat panel television sets and energy efficient lighting, SAFC Hitech continues to strengthen its leading position as a legacy supplier of reliable precursors for the HBLED market.
“As mass manufacturing continues its rise, we are experiencing significant increases in customer and partnership activities in the Asia-Pacific region, which aligns nicely with our core commitment to driving global expansion in the production of precursors for the rapidly expanding HBLED market,” said Philip Rose, SAFC Hitech President. “The expansion of our Kaohsiung presence is a logical next step that will help us to support these markets. By increasing our investment in local technical service capabilities and by leveraging our proprietary technologies and capabilities, we are able to increase our transfilling, production and technical services in these key markets.”
The existing SAFC Hitech Kaohsiung capabilities handle and characterize highly-specialized laboratory-scale chemicals and features a dedicated customer support center. This existing site is ISO 9001 certified for quality and ISO 14001 certified for safety and environmental protocols.
The facility was originally built to service the semiconductor industry demands for ultra-high quality precursors using proprietary technologies. The site also provides integrated inert atmosphere transfilling stations, state-of-the-art analytical instrumentation for the detection of ultra-low metallic and oxygen containing contaminants and dedicated cylinder preparation and packaging areas. An extensive departmental infrastructure (Health & Safety, quality, shipping, sales) provides for adherence to the highest standards of performance.

LEDnovation Breaks 100Lumen/Watt Efficiency Barrier
The firm claims its first high-quality Edison-type LED replacement has the world’s highest efficacy for a warm white LED A19 replacement lamp.
LEDnovation, a leading innovator in LED lighting and replacement lamp technology, has unveiled what it says is the industry’s highest efficiency and first high-quality 100 lumen/watt, warm white, dimmable A19-type replacement lamp.
The first in the series of EnhanceLite A19 Generation-2 LED lamps, the LEDH-A19-60-1- 27D-I offers a 615-lumen output at a warm 2700K color temperature, using only 6.15 W of power.
It delivers ’on-the-target’ light levels equivalent to a 60-watt standard incandescent or 13-watt compact fluorescent in standard downlight applications.
The efficacy exceeds 100 lumens/watt and was verified at a NIST accredited third party lab. Energy savings of 90% are expected when compared to a 60-watt incandescent bulb, and 53% when compared to a 13-watt CFL.
Furthermore it does not contain harmful mercury and emits 2700K dimmable warm white with a CRI greater than 90. It is specifically designed for downlight and recessed fixtures.
According to Israel J. Morejon, CEO of LEDnovation, Our milestone achievement of 100 lumens/watt represents the promise of LED lighting as the highest efficiency lamp-level light source. We continue to invent, commercialize and deliver LED
