Taconic remains committed to the TacPreg product line

One year ago, Isola and Taconic announced an industry alliance to jointly develop, market and manufacture materials for high-speed digital applications under the trade names TacPreg and IS630. Today, Isola is announcing they will no longer continue to market the IS630 product. Restrictions in the original agreement precluded Isola's participation in certain market segments and became a factor in this decision.

Taconic remains committed to the product line and will continue marketing and manufacturing TacPreg prepregs and TacLam 3200 laminates for microwave and digital applications from their US manufacturing site where capacity is sufficient to serve current industry needs. When demand does accelerate, capacity will be expanded to meet global demand. Additionally, Isola will continue manufacturing the product for some period of time.
