Kyzen Opens New Expanded Facility in Penang, Malaysia
NASHVILLE — February 2, 2011 — Kyzen, a world leading provider of environmentally responsible precision cleaning products for electronics and high-technology manufacturing operations, has relocated its Asia Headquarters to a new, larger facility.
Kyzen’s new Penang facility is located in Phase IV of the Bayan Lapas Industrial Estate adjacent to Penang Airport. With triple the capacity for manufacturing and applications, the new facility provides the needed space to enhance the delivery of Kyzen’s world-class service, support and products for our customers in the region.
“While we were conservative when we opened our first Penang manufacturing facility during the depths of the global recession, we did not expect a combination of new business and resurgent demand from our customers to accelerate the expected expansion need several years ahead of plan,” commented Erik Miller, Vice President. “The new facility has nearly tripled our manufacturing and logistics capacity today with additional room for expansion in the future. We also now have space to expand the capabilities of our applications and technical support laboratory,” continued Miller.
As the first dedicated high technology cleaning materials manufacturing facility in Malaysia, Kyzen’s customers enjoy the benefits of local production, such as avoiding the costs, risks and potential delays associated with logistic trains stretching thousands of kilometers. The added benefit of Kyzen’s manufacturing and applications laboratory under the same roof allows for expedited evaluations of the extensive product offering that Kyzen has developed to meet its customer’s requirements.
