"Living in interesting times" is a proverb from somewhere, as is "the third time is the charm." Both of these tidbits of ancient wisdom come to mind as we look forward to 2022. KYZEN, as most other companies in the industry, overcame many challenges the past 2 years due to the perseverance and resilience of both our customers, suppliers, and our own Global Team ~ each made up of exceptional people.

Demand shows no signs of abating, which means supply chain issues will ease gradually requiring continued high-level execution that has been the norm for many years. That means 2022 should provide substantial growth opportunities for our industry, though supplying those expanding opportunities will continue to be challenging. KYZEN has not missed a single shipment during COVID, and we hope to maintain that standard in 2022.

Fortunately, the R&D Team also has a number of new technologies to share with the industry, starting with AQUANOX A4626 – a new, low-VOC, Eco-friendly, high performance aqueous cleaning material for the removal of flux residues for both lead free and tin lead solders while improving the effective removal of the latest polymeric no-clean flux residues. We hope to tell you more about AQUANOX A4626 in person soon. Take care.
