(Wettenberg, June 1, 2010) - The long-serving head of floatzone (FZ) activities
at PVA TePla AG, Jens Borregaard, is to retire. His successor is Dr. Martin
Strassner. Dr. Strassner has already been working on FZ activities in Denmark
for a year and a half. Floatzone systems are used in the manufacture of
high-purity silicon crystals for high-performance applications, e.g. in the
photovoltaics industry and for hybrid technology in automotive engineering, to
name but two key areas of application. Development, construction and sales of
these crystal-growing systems are based in Frederikssund, Denmark.
The floatzone activities in Denmark go back to 1960, and were originally
established by the Danish chemical manufacturer Haldor Topsoe. Jens Borregaard
joined this division in 1973 and headed it from 1977. In 2004, PVA TePla AG,
Wettenberg, acquired this technologically interesting division, which has since
traded as PVA TePla Danmark. Together with his team, Jens Borregaard gradually
turned the business into the world's most important provider of FZ systems. Over
the years, he has delivered not only technological leadership, but also
commercial success. The board of directors thanks Jens Borregaard for his
achievments and his life´s work.
His successor, physicist Dr. Martin Strassner, joined PVA TePla AG in 2008 and
has been working alongside Jens Borregaard in Denmark since 2009. In his
previous positions, Dr. Martin Strassner worked for leading technology companies
and research institutes, and therefore meets all the requirements to ensure a
smooth transition.
