DELPHON REPORTS RECORD SALES FOR 2016

HAYWARD, CA, JANUARY 12, 2017 Delphon, a company that specializes in polymer and adhesive solutions for the electronics and medical industries, reported record sales for the year ending December 31, 2016. The company reported sales were up 16% over 2015 figures, a gain equally spread between both domestic and international transactions. The increase was driven by the introduction of new products and materials, and expanded revenues from the photonics, semi-IC and medical markets.

Delphon’s Gel-Pak division, which manufactures unique device handling carriers, has recently introduced products using its new custom TPE and TPU materials. These materials were the basis of specialized device carriers, films for flexible hybrid electronic applications, and products designed for ESD-sensitive applications. Increased sales to a growing photonics market segment drove growth in the company’s core product line.

Sales for Delphon’s UltraTape division, which manufactures cleanroom tapes, custom labels and graphic overlays, were driven by product introductions in the medical/pharmaceutical market. Delphon’s TouchMark division also saw substantial gains in this market.
