A revenue growth rate of 40% in China drove Semikron, a manufacturer of power semiconductors and diode/thyristor modules to open a new facility in Zhu Hai. Semikron Electronics (www.semikron.com) (Zhu Hai) Co. opened its headquarters and production site in the centre of the hi-tech semiconductor stronghold, the Pearl River Delta.
"The power semiconductor market requires cost-effective solutions with fast delivery times. This is ensured by local production, hands-on sales and qualified service," says Lixin Ren, Managing Director of Semikron Greater China and Southeast Asia. "The global support we enjoy as a subsidiary of the international group is an additional advantage which we gladly share with our customers."
Initially, diode and thyristor power module production will be transferred to the new facility in Zhu Hai. Semikron Zhu Hai, with representative offices in Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen, and Semikron Hong Kong are subsidiaries of Semikron International.
