As the global microelectronics ecosystem gears up for one of its most important gatherings of the year, we at SilcoTek are thrilled to announce that we will be taking part in SEMICON Europa 2025, held at the Messe München trade-fair centre in Munich from 18 to 21 November 2025. Booth staff will include SilcoTek USA's Jim Mattzela as well as SilcoTek GmbH's Johannes Kuett and Nils Herbach.
Every year this event brings together leaders from across the semiconductor supply chain, from materials and manufacturing, to assembly, packaging and systems. The theme of SEMICON Europa 2025 is “Global Collaborations for European Economic Resilience”, reflecting the semiconductor industry's role in a sustainable, secure, and connected economical landscape.
In an industry defined by rapid change, from new materials and innovative device designs to advanced packaging, electrification, MEMS and sensors, and AI-enabled chips, one thing is clear: standing still is not an option. SEMICON Europa provides a powerful forum to discover emerging materials, coatings, and processing methods that drive yield, reliability, and performance; engage with manufacturing equipment and services that support next-generation packaging and assembly flows; connect with engineers, R&D teams, and decision-makers across the supply chain; and explore how sustainability, digitalization, and new business models are reshaping microelectronics in Europe and beyond.
As noted on the SEMICON website: “Lead global innovation: gain insights into how you can utilise innovative processes, materials and technologies …”

At SilcoTek, we specialize in advanced coatings and surface treatments that enhance performance and reliability, particularly in the demanding environments typical of semiconductor manufacturing and advanced packaging. At SEMICON, we’re excited to showcase our comprehensive portfolio of coating solutions designed for materials and components used in semiconductor processing, packaging, sensors, MEMS, power electronics, and more. Visitors will have the opportunity to engage with our experts to discuss how our coatings can address challenges such as corrosion resistance, adhesion, surface chemistry, contamination control, extended component lifetime, and throughput improvements. We’ll also be sharing real-world case studies that demonstrate how our surface treatments have helped customers push the boundaries of reliability, cleanliness, and manufacturing efficiency. Most importantly, we approach coatings and surface engineering as an integrated part of the process chain, not just an added layer. At SEMICON, we look forward to exploring new partnerships, cross-industry ideas, and opportunities to embed our innovations more deeply into advanced manufacturing workflows.
Semiconductor tools increasingly rely on advanced materials, exotic chemistries, and aggressive process conditions. Our portfolio of coatings are engineered through a surface-bonded CVD process and are designed to solve the exact contamination, corrosion, and deposition challenges equipment builders and fabs face every day.
Silicon-rich Siltride coatings are engineered for aggressive chemical exhaust, dry-pump internals, forelines, and post-process gas pathways where acids, moisture, and halogens often cause premature failure or particle release.
Samsung evaluated SilcoTek coatings on vacuum-pump rotors and housings in a high-load production environment. The coated hardware demonstrated:
This study, which we’ll have available at our booth, shows how Siltride helps stabilize surfaces inside chemically challenging exhaust flows, reducing metallic contamination and unplanned downtime.
If you work with etch, ALD, CVD, ion implant, or any process with aggressive byproducts, Siltride can help extend the reliability and cleanliness of your exhaust-path hardware.
Etch and clean tools face extreme challenges: halogens, plasma-generated radicals, rapid temperature swings, and the need for the lowest-possible contamination background.
Silcolloy, a high-purity silicon CVD coating, is widely used on:
Because the coating is chemically bonded to the substrate and conformal even inside complex geometries, it:
We’ll be sharing new data and application insights about Silcolloy in aggressive plasma environments, plus recommendations for OEMs and fabs designing next-generation etch hardware.
If you are attending SEMICON Europa and are involved in materials, device manufacturing, packaging, test, sensors/MEMS, power electronics or even the upstream supply side (equipment, tools, materials) - a visit to our booth will be worthwhile. Some reasons:
We hope to see you there!
