Not manufactured on-site? Still 48 hours away.
For materials outside our current production scope, we hold domestic buffer stock — cutting import lead time from 6–8 weeks to 48 hours, without waiting for us to build synthesis capacity first.
Reselling and stocking, not just manufacturing.
Building synthesis capacity for every specialty gas a fab might need takes years — and some materials will never justify in-house production at all. Rather than make customers wait or look elsewhere, we qualify international manufacturers, import in bulk, and hold domestic stock. The customer experience is identical to buying something we make ourselves: 48-hour delivery, full batch certification, one invoice.
Distributed today. Some, manufactured tomorrow.
| Material | Status | Why Distributed |
|---|---|---|
| NF₃, SiH₄, WF₆ | Bridge — Pre-2029 | Transitions to in-house synthesis once Phase 3 completes |
| Phosphine (PH₃) | Permanent | Extreme toxicity, low volume — distribution safer than in-house synthesis |
| Arsine (AsH₃) | Permanent | Among the most hazardous gases in fab use — distribution-only by design |
| Diborane (B₂H₆), BCl₃ | Permanent | Niche dopant volumes don't justify dedicated synthesis infrastructure |
| Calibration Gas Mixtures | Permanent | Highly customized, small-batch — sourced from specialty gas houses |
Distribution changes the math too.
| Factor | Direct Import | SixN Distribution |
|---|---|---|
| Lead Time | 6–8 weeks | 48 hours from stock |
| Minimum Order | Often container-load minimums | Cylinder-level, matched to need |
| Currency | USD/JPY exposure | INR invoicing |
| QC Verification | Manufacturer's certificate only | Re-verified in our own QC lab |
From global source to your dock, in stock.
The bridge is deliberate, not permanent.
NF₃, SiH₄, and WF₆ are distributed today and manufactured by us from 2029 onward under our Phase 3 synthesis roadmap. Specifications won't change when that transition happens — which means fabs that qualify these materials through our distribution channel today carry that qualification forward with no re-qualification cycle when we bring synthesis in-house.
