SAFC Hitech intends to set up a new, dedicated facility in Kaohsiung of Taiwan to strengthen reinforce its commitment to the Asia-Pacific electronics markets.
According to the member of the Sigma-Aldrich Group, the new facility is expected to be operational by late 2011. It will extend the company's ability to serve the Asian market, leveraging the knowledge and capabilities developed at its existing Kaohsiung facility.
The new investment will shift current operations into a new environment that is expected to expand the Company's transfilling and technical service base, as well as add significant capacity for the dedicated manufacturing of high-quality precursors to support the burgeoning High Brightness LED market and ALD and CVD precursors for the silicon semiconductor market.
