Photronics, Inc. is a leading global supplier of photomask products used in the manufacture of integrated circuits, flat panel displays, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), and advanced packaging applications. Photomasks, also known as reticles, are critical templates that carry the precise circuit patterns required for semiconductor lithography processes. The company offers a comprehensive range of mask solutions, including binary masks, attenuated phase-shift masks, reticles for micro-optics, and specialized products for high‐resolution applications.
Founded in 1969 and headquartered in Brookfield, Connecticut, Photronics has grown through organic expansion and strategic investments in high‐end lithography technology. The company’s product portfolio extends beyond standard masks to include advanced services such as mask repair, inspection, metrology, and data preparation, enabling customers to optimize yield and accelerate time to market. Photronics continues to invest in next‐generation lithography platforms to support the industry’s transition to smaller node geometries and emerging applications.
Photronics operates wafer‐processing facilities and service centers across North America, Europe, and Asia, positioning it close to major semiconductor and display manufacturing hubs. Key manufacturing sites are located in the United States (New York and California), Europe (Germany and the United Kingdom), and Asia (Taiwan, Korea, Japan, Singapore, and China). This global footprint allows the company to provide responsive support, localized expertise, and supply‐chain resilience to a diverse customer base ranging from foundries to IDM and fabless design houses.
Led by a seasoned management team with deep industry expertise, Photronics emphasizes quality, technical innovation, and customer collaboration. The company remains focused on leveraging advanced lithography capabilities and expanding its technology roadmap to address evolving market demands in high‐performance computing, 5G, automotive electronics, and other growth sectors.
