Individual die can be provided in Waffle packs, Film frames, Gel packs, or Tape and Reel. We accept small and large order quantities, as we have a high degree of flexibility in managing both.


We are fully committed to reducing our environmental footprint as much as possible. As part of this commitment, we are fully certified to ISO 14001, which is an internationally agreed standard that sets out the requirements for an environmental management system. Under 14001, we produce zero spills onto land or unintentional releases into the air. We have implemented a reverse osmosis system for wastewater and all our lead waste is 100% recycled on-site. In addition, all hazardous waste is processed by a 3rd party.
