CARLSBAD, CA – Seacomp has opened a new 60,000 sq. ft. manufacturing facility in Tijuana, Mexico.

The new plant features 5,000 sq. ft. of space dedicated to PCB assembly, featuring solder paste printing and inspection, automated SMT placement, and reflow soldering.

"Manufacturing is a global industry, but it's also a hands-on business," said CEO Michael Szymanski. "That's why we've made the decision to bring most of our leadership team back together under one roof and introduce a new SEACOMP facility just an hour away from our command center in Southern California."

Mexico's close proximity to other North American businesses promises an unmatched opportunity to diversify product supply chains, reduce costs and lead times, and provide increased possibilities for "hands-on" collaboration throughout the product development process, the company said.

Seacomp celebrated the factory's official launch on May 9, with a grand opening event that included a ribbon-cutting ceremony, facility tour, and networking opportunities for 115 partners, customers, and global employees.

The new facility will create a total of 100 jobs in 2024, with about a third of those being highly skilled roles in engineering and management, the company said.
