KINETICS has more than doubled its production capacity with the start-up of a new plant in Tempe, Arizona. The focus will be on manufacturing for the semiconductor industry. The Durham plant will continue to specialise in supporting life science/biopharma projects.
In total, the new building in Tempe has 14,500 m² of office space, from where the southwest of the USA will be served in the future. In addition, part of the space will be used for Virtual Design & Construction (VDC). The three specialised manufacturing halls comprise an additional 48,000 m² of space. This can significantly increase the speed to market and eliminate production bottlenecks.
Manufacturing has been optimised to KINETICS' safety and quality philosophy. Occupational safety meets KINETICS' "Beyond Zero" standards and quality controls set new standards. The BIM or Revit-based manufacturing tools, which enable real-time tracking of all production steps, also contribute to this.
The new facility will not only more than double KINETICS' current manufacturing space - with the potential to triple it - but will also create several dozen new manufacturing jobs. The office space dedicated to VDC is large enough to more than double the number of VDC team members.
The three production halls specialise in different areas of focus: the production of large piping systems and skids, the manufacture of high-purity cleanrooms and the production of low-purity plastics.
