Company history
Two years after the conclusion of his studies of electrotechnology in Munich, Dipl.-Ing. Burkhard Kunze founded his own engineering firm. A one-man business in the beginning, Kunze Folien GmbH was officially launched in 1985. Mr Kunze soon recognized the future significance of power electronics and the necessity for heat loss dissipation. At that time, the combination of mica with thermally conductive paste was beginning to be replaced by the new technology of thermo-silicone films. That technology became the focus of the young company's operations. The company's continuous and lasting success since confirms that decision. Semiconductor cooling will always be a decisive factor in the development of power electronics - we at Kunze Folien face that challenge with innovative materials, processes and techniques.
