What does Materion do?

Materion Corporation, through its wholly owned subsidiaries, operates as an integrated producer of high-performance advanced engineered materials used in a variety of electrical, electronic, thermal, and structural applications. The company’s products are sold into numerous end markets, including semiconductor, industrial, aerospace and defense, automotive, energy, consumer electronics, and life sciences. Segments The company operates through Performance Materials, Electronic Materials, and Pr...

Segments

The company operates through Performance Materials, Electronic Materials, and Precision Optics segments.

Performance Materials

Performance Materials provides advanced engineered solutions comprising beryllium and non-beryllium containing alloy systems and custom engineered metal solutions in the forms of strip, bulk, rod, plate, bar, tube, and many specialized custom shapes produced at manufacturing facilities located throughout the United States and Europe and sold through distribution global hubs. This segment operates the world's largest bertrandite ore mine and refinery, which is located in Utah, providing feedstock hydroxide for its beryllium businesses and external sale. In addition to the products, this segment globally provides engineering and product development services to help its customers and partners with product design, including delivering prototype parts and other data to demonstrate that the products will perform under the required design specifications. Performance Materials operates through three global product lines: Advanced Alloys, Specialty Materials, and Performance Solutions.

Advanced Alloys manufactures and globally provides to the company’s customers three upstream (primary) product lines: alloyed metals, high-performance beryllium products, and beryllium hydroxide. Alloyed metals are made with copper and/or nickel (with or without beryllium) in ingot, shot, billet, plate, rod, bar, tube forms, and customized shapes. Depending on the application, the materials may provide one or a combination of superior strength, specific strength, wear and corrosion resistance, thermal and electrical conductivity, tribological benefits, and machinability. Applications for alloyed metals products include oil & gas drilling and production components, bearings, bushings, welding electrodes, plastic injection or metal die casting mold tooling, and electrical or electronic connectors. Major end markets for alloyed metals include industrial, automotive, aerospace and defense, energy, and life sciences. Alloyed metals compete with companies around the world that produce alloys with similar properties. High performance beryllium products are primarily beryllium metal products, which may also be alloys or other mixtures with aluminum and may be beryllium oxide. The materials are manufactured in billet, ingot, plate, sheet, powder, and customized shape forms. These materials are used in applications that require high stiffness and/or low density or high thermal conductivity and/or high electrical resistance. The properties are provided from the unique combination of material properties, or in applications requiring specific interactions with sub-atomic, high-energy particles, or in applications requiring strong affinity for oxygen, such as in the manufacture of primary aluminum and magnesium. Beryllium hydroxide is produced at the company’s milling operations in Utah from its bertrandite ore mine and purchased beryl ore. The hydroxide is used primarily as a raw material input for beryllium-containing alloys and, to a lesser extent, beryllium products.

Key competitors include NGK Insulators, IBC Advanced Alloys Corp., Ningxia Orient Tantalum Industry Co., Ltd., Le Bronze Alloys, Minotti Metals, SA, KME AG & Co. KG, Aurubis AG, MKM Mansfelder Kupfer und Messing GmbH, AMPCO Metal, Chuetsu Metal Works Ltd, American Beryllia Inc., CBL Ceramics Limited, CoorsTek, Inc., and Ulba Metallurgical.

Specialty Materials produces and provides the company’s customers various thicknesses of precision strip products, as well as various diameters of rod and wire products. The strip, rod, and wire products are beryllium and non-beryllium containing alloys that are made primarily with copper and nickel to provide unique combinations of high conductivity, high reliability, and high formability for use as connectors, contacts, springs, switches, relays, shielding, and bearings. In addition, Specialty Materials also produces and provides unique engineered strip metal products, which incorporate clad inlay and overlay metals, including precious and base metal electroplated systems, electron beam welded systems, contour profiled systems, and solder-coated metal systems. These engineered strip metal products provide a variety of thermal, electrical, or mechanical properties from a surface area or particular section of the material. The company’s precision cladding and plating capabilities allow for precious metal or other base metals to be applied in continuous strip form. Major end markets include consumer electronics, life sciences, automotive, aerospace and defense, industrial, and energy.

Competition: Key competitors include NGK Insulators, Wieland Electric, Inc., Aurubis Stolberg GmbH, Diehl Metall Stiftung & Co. KG, Nippon Mining, Proterial Ltd.,Wickeder Group, Heraeus Inc., and AMI Doduco, Inc.

Performance Solutions provides engineered end-product technologies to the company’s customers, including near-net shape and finished machined beryllium containing and non-beryllium containing products. These products and materials are suitable for applications that require high stiffness and/or low density due to their unique combination of properties. Performance Solutions provides beryllium metal and beryllium alloy components mainly to the aerospace and defense and energy end markets. Beryllium foil products are provided for radiographic and acoustic applications, beryllium oxide ceramics are provided for a wide range of heat sink and high temperature industrial applications, and its copper beryllium products meet the demanding strength and corrosion resistance specifications required for sub-sea telecommunication equipment. In addition, the company’s engineering teams have developed several innovative non-beryllium materials to meet demanding wear resistance or strength-to-weight applications used in a variety of industries. Its ToughMet alloys provide extended life for industrial bushings and bearings and tremendous wear resistance in oil and gas rig components. The company’s SupremEX products offer the industry’s highest quality aluminum silicon carbide metal matrix composite formulation, well suited for a wide range of applications from high performance engine components and aerospace structural components to high-stiffness consumer electronic components.

Direct competitors include IBC Advanced Alloys, NGK Metals, ATI Specialty Metals, CBL Ceramics Limited, and CoorsTek, Inc.
