Our Mission

Ushering in a paradigm change for the silicon refinement process. 

Our Story

In 2019, Founding Director Aaron Hardin was trailblazing new technology in the medical & healthcare industry. This development would create the taxonomic architecture for every biological and non-organic reaction in science, which means real-time monitoring of cascade reactions on micro as well as macro scale environmental impacts and implications. Furthermore, the level of inter-connectivity and security achieved enabled the sharing of data, procedural information, as well as real-time imaging for immediate collaboration from laboratories spanning around the globe.

In 2020, this technology was being fast tracked through large buyers and government laboratories for the Hardware as a Service model. The standard experimental procedures and FDA open API data pipeline was in development, and ground was broken for large scale manufacturing operations.

​

Like many, the economic shut down presented delays, required new logistics partners, new vendors and suppliers for components. Screws, steel, plastics, and especially electronics were all hard to secure reliably. When they were obtained, the quality was questionable, and resulted in increased overhead and operating expenses. When the price of silicon surged 300%, along with security concerns that presented the need to hand inspect every micro-chip for defects and malware, it was apparent that there was a massive problem.

​

Col. Hardin was not alone in facing inherent barriers of this magnitude. All of the businesses he's worked with, including partners, businesses he sits on boards or advisory positions with, regardless of their industry sector, faced a similar problem. When speaking to the Policy Executive Secretariat from the Department of Defense, an agreement was made that as much of the Integrated Circuit vertical would be moved to the United States as possible, and these secured and guaranteed chips would power our military and government.

​

Many sleepless nights later, Col. Hardin and his assembled team developed proprietary processes that would not only provide a cost effective method of refining microchip grade silicon, but could compete on price with pre-COVID shutdown numbers.

Our proprietary refinement process reduces manufacturing costs to 1/23rd the current industry standard, increases final product yield by 4x factor, and reduces feature size to 5μm from the industry 20μm-23μm, another 4x improvement on the current industry current.

​

Proof of concept with third-party verification was achieved mid 2022, and the company has since moved forward to beta testing the refinement process in tons. The build-out for the HQ production factory in Kentucky began in January of 2023, and the first available bulk commodities will be available later in the year. Recent partnerships, distribution customers, and government relationships have enabled this to happen sooner rather than later. We are proud to be in the beautiful bluegrass state of Kentucky, and above all, we are proud to be a U.S. company, employing U.S. citizens, and manufacturing with U.S. materials. For the first time since the discovery of the Acheson process in the 1890's, the full stack of Integrated Circuits from the production and refinement of raw materials to microchip production is once again secured for American interests.
