For years, SLB Hightech operated under the auspices of sister company RVS NON FERRO as a reliable partner to OEMs and first-tier suppliers in high-grade industries. We spread our wings in 2021. We now operate as an independent business unit with a focus on the semiconductor and pharmaceutical industries.
