At our existing facilities, we are presently at capacity both in personnel and manufacturing and we need to increase personnel and capabilities in multiple product areas for the future. The planned expansion includes First Nano R&D equipment, CVD Production equipment and, through our Application Laboratory, process development and material manufacturing programs which will advance the state of the art in 1D, 2D and 3D Nanotechnology beyond the traditional limits of the chemical vapor deposition field. With this expansion, we will further accelerate the commercialization of tomorrow’s technology and further our “Sustainable Growth with Low Risk” business strategy.
