Bert Thin Films is an innovative company at the forefront of revolutionizing the solar energy industry through advanced material science. The company specializes in the development and manufacturing of a proprietary copper paste, CuBert™, designed to significantly reduce the cost of solar cell production.

Traditionally, solar cells rely on expensive silver paste for creating the metal patterns that collect and conduct electricity. Bert Thin Films addresses this critical cost challenge by offering CuBert™ as a direct, plug-and-play substitute for silver paste. This patented solution seamlessly integrates into existing manufacturing processes, utilizing standard screen-printing equipment and belt furnaces without requiring any additional process steps or an inert atmosphere, a key differentiator from other copper-based alternatives.

CuBert™ ensures that solar panel manufacturers can immediately benefit from the lower cost and higher abundance of copper. The technology provides competitive performance to silver, demonstrating proven high efficiency and exceptional durability with no copper diffusion, guaranteeing resilience over time. By enabling cost-effective, scalable production using existing infrastructure, Bert Thin Films facilitates the widespread adoption of more affordable solar energy solutions, empowering manufacturers to enhance profitability and contribute to a sustainable energy future.
