NEWPORT, SOUTH WALES – TT Electronics said it would integrate its five manufacturing services businesses into a single division, creating the UK’s largest – and the world’s 25th largest – EMS company. The combined business unit features some 460,000 sq. ft. of manufacturing space and 1,500 staff with sites in Perry, OH; Rogerstone and Aylesbury, UK; Suzhou; and Kuantan, Malaysia. In a statement, TT Electronics chief executive Neil Rodgers said, “Our integrated manufacturing services division offers high-volume services to customers manufacturing low to medium volumes. These include not only a choice of manufacturing location, to fit the profile of technical skills, quality accreditation and cost environment associated with each project, but also a service package that can extend right out to a fully outsourced logistics organization.”
