FLOUROWARE

Flouroware is the original manufacturer of PFA (Teflon) wafer carriers. Founded in the 1960's, Flouroware spun off a number of successful companies including FSI, Galtek and Empak. Flouroware continued to grow through the 70's and 80's - introducing products for fluid handling, disk media handling, parts cleaning, and finished wafer and bare die handling.

Flouroware was known as the industry leader in silicon wafer carriers and process related products. It was challenged primarily by Empak, which was stronger in the wafer shipping product arena. During the 90's, Flouroware made repeated attempts to capture the wafer shipping market with a variety of product offerings while Empak began to make inroads into the process carrier and storage markets. In 1999, Flouroware merged with Empak to form Entegris. The combined companies went public and are traded under the symbol ENTG. Today, Entegris has a market capitalization of over $1-billion. Electronic Container obtains Flouroware products as used and excess inventory from wafer fabs and offers them to our customers at deeply discounted prices.
