SALDtech announces rebranding, changing its name.

SALDtech has unveiled a new name, new logo, and new products as part of an extensive rebranding initiative.

Eindhoven, June 1st, 2022 - SALDtech B.V., supplier of lab-to-fab Spatial Atomic Layer Deposition equipment, has completed an extensive rebranding in response to the new focus on the company’s business, a renewal of its corporate vision and growth of the company. At the heart of this rebranding: a new company name - SparkNano, a new corporate logo and a new website. All launched as of June 1st, 2022.

SALDtech was originally founded in 2018, focusing on Spatial ALD equipment for the OLED display market. Since then, global-scale challenges like a pandemic and the looming effects of climate change have changed the world in unprecedented ways. The past years have made clear there is an urgent need for innovative technology to generate, store and convert energy in ways that are sustainable, carbon-neutral, low-cost, and accessible to all.

Urgent need for innovative technology

The urgent need for new innovative solutions inspired SparkNano (formerly SALDtech) to find new applications where its unique and disruptive technology enables its customers to develop better, cheaper, and higher-performing materials for sustainable energy applications such as electrolysers for green hydrogen production, fuel cells, batteries, and solar cells. SparkNano’s unique and patented technology makes it possible to significantly reduce the use of scarce materials such as iridium and platinum in electrolysis as well as to increase the performance and stability of next generation batteries and solar cells. Huib Heezen, CEO of SparkNano: “At SparkNano, we strongly believe that our Spatial Atomic Layer Deposition solutions can support the quest for a sustainable energy future. That this belief is shared by our customers is clear by the rapidly growing commercial traction. Together with our customers, partners, and investors we are determined and eager to make our new direction a great success.“
