(NB: CLICK ON GRAPH TO ENLARGE) –I have bumped into Mr. David Epner at the SPIE DSS Exposition almost every year now for the last 10 years. He is still giving away gold-plated Paper Clips as samples of the fine gold coating services he provides to the optics industry and others.

Last time we met, he was at a different conference, if I recall correctly it was at Interphex 2007 in New York City.

The curve for the specular reflectance of his Laser Gold Coating is actually three curves, if you look closely.

At that time I mentioned to him that if he had any press releases to send them along personally to me so we could put them on one of our websites. Today I got one. Someone else, bigger and better known than our publications have published the “Epner Story”. Here it is:

Aviation Week and Space Technology, the leading publication of the aerospace industry, has recognized Epner Technology as a key supplier.

In a full page article on Epner headlined “Gold Rush” and published in the November 19 issue, Joe Anselmo, their top Business Editor, described the company as a leading industry supplier to, “…aerospace and defense, medical, computer and automotive industries.”.

Needless to say, we deeply appreciate the recognition.

As a current (or future) Epner Technology customer, we thought you might be interested in what their editors had to say about the company, our unique processes and unusual applications and their interviews with some of our major customers.

We welcome your comments.
