Since establishing its base at AMATA City Chonburi in 2022, Taiflex has embarked on comprehensive operational planning, including factory construction, talent recruitment and training, and production planning. The Thailand factory, covering nearly 42,000 square meters, serves as a crucial operational base for Taiflex in Southeast Asia. Upon full completion, it is expected to increase the group's production capacity by 50%. Phase 1 of the factory and office building was completed by the end of 2023, with production trials commencing smoothly. The overall production line tuning was successful, achieving formal production readiness in the first quarter of 2024, significantly contributing to the group's capacity.

In recent years, the global economic landscape has undergone significant changes, necessitating accelerated supply chain restructuring to enhance resilience. In response, the opening and operation of the Taiflex Thailand factory inject new momentum into its global footprint. Currently, the world's top three flexible printed circuit material manufacturers have either established factories in Southeast Asia or are in the process of doing so. The Taiflex Thailand factory is expected to further enhance the overall flexible printed circuit material supply chain in Southeast Asia. Additionally, Thailand, as a key automotive production hub in Southeast Asia, boasts a complete industrial ecosystem. As the only flexible printed circuit material supplier with a factory in Thailand, and with a comprehensive track record of automotive material mass production and quality certification systems, Taiflex is poised to play a significant role in the Thai automotive supply chain, providing timely and comprehensive products and services.

On this auspicious occasion, we join in celebrating Taiflex's achievement and extend our heartfelt congratulations, wishing the company unparalleled success and a continued strong partnership.
