Kevin Jackson, All Flex Solutions CEO, commented, “this is the investment we talked about a year ago, and it signals the start of what we intend to accomplish for our customers and other stakeholders – state-of-the-art manufacturing of flexible circuits, high yields at lower costs, less handling, and an overall higher velocity manufacturing environment. We want our customers products to be built on the best equipment available for their success.”
John Fallon, All Flex Solutions President of Flexible Operations, added, “this facility and its capabilities have been years in the planning and will allow us to expand our capacity for flexible circuits, flexible heaters, and our newest product CatheterFlex® circuits – extremely long, very thin, flexible circuits for medical applications. We will add capacity and increase technology at the same time. This is a very exciting time for us!”
