Matrix USA Announces Opening of New West Coast Facility
Matrix USA is pleased to announce the opening of a new West Coast Fabrication Center, Warehouse, Laboratory and Sales Office in Santa Ana, CA. This newly renovated 23,000 sq. ft. facility is conveniently located in the heart of the Southern California Printed Circuit marketplace and is managed by industry veteran, Marv Bain. It will service printed circuit fabricators throughout the Western US and Canadian region.
A focal point of this new facility is a newly purchased automated laminate paneling line that offers precision cutting and stamping for multilayer laminate materials. This line minimizes material handling and offers our customers the highest quality cut panels and volume production capability. It is designed to enhance the world class value of the Panasonic* laminate materials product line. A duplicate line is also installed at the Matrix Electronics Toronto, Ontario location.
The Santa Ana facility also provides precision fabrication equipment for prepreg, backup, entry, and copper foil as well as warehousing for the rest of the Matrix USA product line including Jinzhou Drills, Holley and Kingboard rigid laminate, Uyemura specialty chemical products, and replacement parts for the Hakuto and Ishii Hyoki equipment lines.
Kieran Healy – President of Matrix USA: “Our Santa Ana facility represents the culmination of over 9 months of hard work developing the infrastructure to provide world class support in the West Coast for our newly acquired Panasonic* laminate line. We are pleased to announce that inventory is in place and the pipeline is filled and we are open for business!”
