Entegris reckons it can answer the latest demands from the consumer electronics industry with its 1in, 27mm conductive disk shipper.

The Entegris 1in conductive disk shipper is designed to protect and transport 27mm hard drive disks during and after processing.

It is the only product available to handle both 10 and 15mil thickness media, using interchangeable cores.

(Small-form-factor disk drives, such as 27mm, are used in the growing consumer electronics market which includes products like MP3 players, digital video cameras and cell phones).

"Entegris has been a provider of materials integrity management solutions in the microelectronics and data storage marketplace for over 37 years", says Greg Morris, Entegris President of the Data Storage Market Segment.

"We see an opportunity to take this expertise and expand our offering to both our traditional data storage customers and consumer electronics suppliers.

As consumer demand for portable electronics grows, so does the need for solutions that provide safe, reliable process and transport - and that is where Entegris excels".

Disks, which are used for memory and storage, are very fragile during and after processing.

Manufacturers are under constant pressure to maintain the high quality and integrity of the media, and improve overall yield.

The Entegris 27mm disk shipper provides the ability for increased automation while minimising particulation issues.

This reduces the potential for disk damage or contamination during and after processing and, ultimately, increases yield.
