Corporate
Overview
Electrochemistry is an essential technology for the manufacture
of many industrial chemical products. ELTECH Systems Corporation,
a technology-driven manufacturing and marketing company, focuses
on extending electrochemistry's reach.
ELTECH is widely
recognized as a world leader in electrochemical technology and related
product utilization. Its technological skill set is based on over
three decades of research, product development, manufacture, and
service for customers using electrochemistry-based products and
processes. These capabilities are marketed worldwide to a customer
base that includes many large multinational corporations.
Dimensionally
stable anodes (DSA®*), titanium metal substrates with electrocatalytic
coatings, form the core of ELTECH's technology and product lines.
During the 1970s, DSA anodes revolutionized the manufacture of chlorine,
caustic, and chlorate. Since then, ELTECH has invested heavily to
enhance its DSA expertise through laboratory research, field testing,
and product commercialization. Today ELTECH ranks as the world's
largest supplier of DSA anodes. The Company's total commitment to
DSA technology remains unchanged.
ELTECH
markets its technology and product lines globally through the ELECTRODE
Division, which consists of the Chlorine/Chlorate Group and the
Anode Technologies Group. In turn, the Company's Technology Group
provides ELECTRODE businesses with research, development, and technical
support, and also serves as a continuing source of innovative products
and applications. Building on this base, ELTECH
focuses on four fundamentals:
- Enhance the
capabilities of electrochemistry
- Emphasize
added value for existing customer operations
- Extend the
benefits of electrochemistry to new customers and applications
- Expand the
global presence.

Technologies Group
Electrochemistry
has become an indispensable building block. Its wide-ranging applications
are increasingly essential to developed and developing countries.
However, to address today's changing environmental and business
conditions, many electrochemical processes require innovative rethinking.
With over 30
years' experience in electrochemical research and manufacturing,
ELTECH Systems Corporation is the recognized leader in creating
and implementing original solutions for a broad spectrum of electrochemical
activities. Building on this substantial experience base, ELTECH's
Anode Technologies Group concentrates on market segments where an
electrochemical approach offers value-added benefits.
ELTECH formed
the Anode Technologies Group to provide new directions in electrochemistry
for customers worldwide. This strategy, unique within the electrochemistry
industry, considers two flexible options. Sometimes an evolutionary
improvement yields a satisfactory solution for the customer. At
other times, however, a more innovative, bolder leap may be required.
The staff is willing to evaluate and work closely with users in
either format.
The Anode Technologies
Group consists of several business segments, each focused on a specific
application arena. They include:
- Electrogalvanizing
and Electrotinning
- Copper Foil
Formation and Treatment
- Water Treatment
- Cathodic
Protection
- Electrometallurgy
- Specialty
Applications.
