In 2014 Nihon Superior will be introducing innovative high performance lead-free joining materials that deliver assured reliability in automotive, photovoltaic, power management and robotic applications that have to operate in harsh environments. Additions to the SN100C(R) series will build on this alloy's 14-year track record of reliable service.

Additionally, the new AlcoNano(R) range of nano-silver products provides a new solution in particular applications such as elevated temperature service with processing temperature comparable with those used with conventional solder alloys.

Responding to the increasing spread of our business to new markets, Nihon Superior is strengthening its global network of licensees and group offices so that customers can enjoy the prompt delivery and the highest possible level of technical support, regardless of where they are located.

As we look forward to the continued growth in the adoption of our SN100C alloy, we have granted our longtime partner BALVER ZINN the right to sublicense our SN100C formulation in Europe and have welcomed two new sub-licensees, FELDER and STANNOL.
