Targray is a dedicated supplier to the PV industry, unlike Momentive, which supply’s a wide-range of industries with silicone and other products.

“Momentive’s potting, sealing and adhesive solutions provide best-in-class performance in terms of field durability and manufacturing process requirements, and we’re very excited about the tremendous value these products will bring to customers in the critical sealing and potting applications,” stated Dan Murray, Targray Vice-President. “We see great synergy between Targray’s intimate knowledge of the photovoltaic industry and Momentive’s ability to drive new silicone technologies.”
