Health and safety in product use

FOM technologies recognize the importance of providing products that are safe to both handle and use. Internally, we see this as a strict requirement for our future growth, not only for our customer segments but also for our own reputation and brand image in the research industries, as well as in scaled and commercial productions. As a result of this recognition, FOM is invested in continuously improving health and safety regulations in relation to product development and product use. As described in our strategy, we see a clear link between safety in handling and upskilling in the use of our products and slot-die coating technology.

Upskilling of workforces

At FOM Technologies, we are partnering with leading institutions worldwide to provide access to unrivaled training facilities and instructions. Our slot-die coating workshops provide new users with the opportunity to jump-start their knowledge with a hands-on introduction to all aspects of precise, continuous, and scalable thin-film production via slot-die coating. Experienced users will also benefit from a chance to sharpen their skills, fill knowledge gaps, and discuss their most pressing challenges with world-leading instructors during these training sessions.
“Two days at a FOM Technologies workshop clearly demonstrated the value of slot die coating in rapid iteration and upscaling of solution-processed thin film devices. The WCET facilities were excellent, the program was flexible and the guidance I received was spot-on. It significantly accelerated and substantiated my understanding of the slot die coating process. I left the workshop with tangible benefits for our process and a better understanding of how to move forward in our large-area coating and testing.”

Health and safety in production

It is recognized that safety in relation to our products should also apply to the production of these. As a part of our close collaboration spirit, we have therefore chosen to integrate follow-ups with our main production-related suppliers to best possible ensure that our products will not have an overall negative impact on health and safety reported issues in our supply chain. It is a clear wish from our side that we build upon this commitment in our reporting efforts.
