Brewer Science, Inc. Release date: July 11, 2006
Brewer Science Reaches 25-Year Milestone Rolla, MO - Brewer Science has reached a significant milestone, a silver anniversary. The company has demonstrated a commitment to employees, customers and technology that has spanned 25 years. Since 1981, when Dr. Terry Brewer created the business, the Brewer Science vision, to be a company of the people, for the customer and by the technology, has remained constant. So too has the company's mission to sustain long-term success through value-based culture, diversity and growth. The Brewer Science vision and mission are lived throughout the company and are a part of every plan and relationship.
While markets the company serves have experienced some dramatic changes and cycles, the past 25 years have given rise to a business with a consistent reputation for leading-edge technology products created by innovative professionals. Brewer Science has nurtured a culture of listening and working alongside of customers to innovate and create for the future. This customer-as-partner model, combined with strong employee development efforts, has led to an entrepreneurial culture and breakthrough technological solutions. With a huge investment in research and product development, Brewer Science continues to focus on creating technology solutions for future microelectronics and other applications. Brewer Science, a well-known name in the semiconductor industry for its innovative ARCŪ brand bottom anti-reflective coatings, invented and introduced this technology in 1982 to chip makers worldwide. This innovative solution not only reduced the cost of ownership for the fabs but also proved the technology's greater overall value in use by improving product yields at finer feature sizes. The family of ARCŪ brand products has grown and continues to meet and exceed the demands of our customers. Through the years, additional products have been added to the company's portfolio, including optoelectronic products, which support integrated circuits, color sensors and the display industries throughout the world.
In 1987, Brewer Science designed a wafer-processing machine for use in our lab. This machine was needed to test the company's new spin-on materials.
Through the development of this prototype, another portion of the business was created. Today the company provides customers with customized wafer processing equipment designed to meet the unique needs of each end user.
With humble beginnings, Brewer Science has broken ground four times to expand the global headquarters facility located in Rolla, Missouri. The latest groundbreaking occurred in 2002 with the addition of a 55,000-square-foot research and development facility. In addition to the growth in Rolla, Missouri, Brewer Science has also expanded globally with the addition of Brewer Science, Limited, located in the United Kingdom, in 1992. In 2001, Brewer Science Asia, Limited, located in Hong Kong, China, was created. In 2003, Brewer Science Taiwan, Limited, and in 2005, Brewer Science Germany, Limited, were established. In addition to these facilities, a network of regional offices scattered worldwide provide customer service and logistical support to our customers.
Brewer Science has made a commitment to quality and to the environment, shown by its achievement of ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 14001 certifications. This hard-earned recognition provides stakeholders with the assurance that Brewer Science is committed to remain the supplier of choice to its customers. Every employee is charged with the responsibility to meet or exceed customer expectations, which has led to rigorous implementation of quality systems that enable continuous improvement throughout all areas of our company for the benefit of all customers.
Our ISO 14001 certified environmental policy lets our stakeholders know that Brewer Science has established and is committed to maintaining an environmental management system with the overall objective of preventing pollution of the environment. Brewer Science complies with all relevant national, local and IATA regulations wherever we operate. The commitment to the environment is shared beyond the Brewer Science campus, as Brewer Science partners with the community to cosponsor community-wide events such as the Community Household Hazardous Waste Collection, Stream Clean and Earth Day activities.
Reaching out through relationships has been vital to the growth and success of the Brewer Science. Hence, the company has a deep commitment to making its community a better place to live and work. Brewer Science contributes to approximately 30 youth, charitable, social service, academic, arts and athletic organizations through financial and in-kind donations and service. We foresee these efforts continuing as we evolve for the future.
