WATERBURY, CT -- MacDermid announced the formation of a new business unit to focus on the solar industry. Don Cullen, a veteran of the printed circuit board industry and a 20-year MacDermid employee, has been selected to lead MacDermid’s Photovoltaics group that will fall under MacDermid’s Advanced Surface Finishing Segment.
 
Announcing the new business, Cullen commented, “Each of MacDermid’s divisions provides chemical processes to the solar energy industry. From wafer cleaning, and conductor metallization to screen-printing and anti-reflective technologies, MacDermid already has a strong presence in the photovoltaics industry. As the industry evolves into more efficient cells, there is a demand for new metallization and imaging techniques. These are MacDermid’s core competencies. Use of our chemical processes allow PV manufacturers an elegant path to significant reductions in $/watt.”
