FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Camtek and Sun Chemical Establish a Strategic Cooperation

MIGDAL HAEMEK, Israel – August 14, 2017 – Camtek Ltd. (NASDAQ: CAMT and TASE: CAMT) has established a strategic cooperation with Sun Chemical, a leading producer of printing inks, coatings and supplies, pigments, polymers, liquid compounds, solid compounds, and application materials.

In the framework of this cooperation, Sun will develop liquid solder mask ink to be used in Camtek's inkjet system for PCB applications.
