Following a successful partnership with Altus Group in the UK and Ireland, Solderking, a leading manufacturer of solders and chemical consumables, will work with Danutek to bring its product range to a wider European customer base.
Danutek, Altus’ sister company, has partnered with Solderking and will offer sales and after-sales support in several European countries including, Hungary, Ukraine, Serbia, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Herzegovina, Romania, Bulgaria and Macedonia.
As the first Solderking distributor outside of the UK and Ireland, Danutek is delighted to bring the company’s innovative range of soldering assembly materials to electronic manufacturers in Eastern Europe.
Petar Truhchev, Sales and Support Manager of Danutek Bulgaria, said: “We are pleased to have reached an agreement with Solderking that underscores the value of our business network and experience within the electronics sector.“
With a reputation for manufacturing class-leading soldering consumables that stand up to strict regulatory standards like REACH and RoHS, the Solderking product range will be a welcome addition to Danutek’s already impressive portfolio of products from some of the world’s most innovative suppliers.
Petar added: “We are always looking for the best products and offerings to bring to our partners. With Solderking we have another great provider to introduce to the Danutek territories and, we look forward to supporting their innovative products in a new region.

Overview of Soldering Systems With Vacuum
12/18/2024 | Dr. Paul Wild, Rehm Thermal Systems GmbHWhen soldering electronic assemblies, the focus of the vacuum application is on the removal of volatile substances from the solder joints and the associated reduction of pore formation. Particularly in the thermal management of power electronics components, pores can cause so-called hotspots with higher temperatures due to their poor heat conduction. These hotspots can lead to overheating of the components on the one hand and to thermally induced destruction of the solder structure on the other.
