Description

Spectrogon derives its origin partly from research conducted at the Royal Institute of Technology, a leading Swedish technical university, and partly from research and development projects at AGA Innovation Center. AGA Innovation Center comprised of laboratories for long-term research and development of AGA AB, a major Swedish industrial group. During the late 1960's and early 1970's several research programs were directed towards electro-optics. In 1980 the AGA Group changed its strategy and brought together the various high technology and electro-optics businesses to form a new group, Pharos AB. AGA Innovation Center's thin film optics projects where transferred to a new subsidiary of Pharos, AGA Optical, which eventually became Spectrogon in 1984. Spectrogon AB became an independent company on June 28, 1991, when the existing management organised an employee buyout. Spectrogon has established operating businesses in three different countries: Spectrogon AB headquartered in Täby, Sweden, is housed at 2200 square meter modern manufacturing facility for thin film products employing 60 persons for R&D, production, sales and marketing in Europe, Asia and Australia -Spectrogon UK, Limited, in Glenrothes, Scotland is a wholly owned subsidiary. It employs 3 persons for sales and marketing in Great Britain, Ireland, France, Netherlands and Belgium
