Company description

Ossila manufactures equipment, electronics and products for constructing research devices such as graphene and perovskite.

The company Ossila Ltd has developed a range of products targeted at developers of organic electronic devices. The company also supplies research-based services to technical markets around the world. The majority of Ossila's sales are through the company website. The company sells a range of laboratory consumable items, electronics and other testing equipment to researchers working in organic electronics. In 75% of cases, the products supplied by Ossila are designed in-house, with the company playing a direct role in their manufacture. Ossila also sells a range of organic semiconductor materials that each come with a full-process recipe that allows the user to fabricate high-efficiency OPV/OLED devices. Ossila commissions the synthesis of many of the organic semiconductors that it sells. Other materials are produced by partner companies and are then re-sold by Ossila; however, considerable value is added through testing material performance, performing quality control and developing processing protocols that are supplied to customers.

Project impact

The impact of the company can be judged in terms of the income generated and the jobs created. Ossila provides a catalogue of materials, components and consumable items to researchers working on the development of organic electronic devices, and mainly exports its products to foreign markets (40 countries in total, worldwide). The breakdown of sales per area in 2012 were: UK 15%, EU 36%, US 8%, rest of world 41% (including India, China, Brazil, Korea, Japan, Mexico, Canada, Singapore, Malaysia). Ossila also undertakes contract research projects for other companies and has helped such companies to apply for further funding. Ossila currently employs 17 part-time and full-time workers, and continues to undergo rapid growth and expansion by developing innovative products and materials for thin-film electronics research.

Projects

2014 GRD Proof of Concept Lead participant

Laboratory-scale Flexible Organic Roll-to- Roll Manufacturing (LabFORM)

1 Sep 2014 to 31 Aug 2015

Awarded
£97,426
Total cost £162,377

Organic Electronic (OE) & nanotech devices have great potential to improve economic, environmental & social well being as they allow production of higher performance & potentially less expensive electronics on large-area flexible substrates. This creates new markets & opportunities that would be impossible using inorganic materials such as copper or silic...

2013 GRD Proof of Concept Lead participant

High-throughput screening system for organic electronic nano materials

1 Aug 2013 to 31 Oct 2014

Awarded
£93,285
Total cost £155,475

Organic Electronics (OE) enables the production of lighter, more robust & potentially less expensive electronics on large-area flexible substrates. This makes them a highly desirable alternative in many applications, as well as creating new opportunities that would be impossible using traditional inorganic conductors & semiconductors, such as copper or si...
