SMC Ltd. is expanding its capacity in Massachusetts with a move to a 210,000-square-foot facility in Devens.
The medical device contract manufacturer, based in Somerset, Wis., also has locations in California, Ohio, Costa Rica and India.
The Massachusetts expansion will consolidate three current facilities located in Sterling and Leominster into one facility, while allowing additional square footage for future growth. The new facility will have 60,000 square feet of Class 8 clean room with an additional 15,000 square feet of Class 7 clean room, company officials reported.
“We’re excited to build a facility and consolidate all three SMC East locations under one roof. The move to Devens will allow us to better serve our customers with an expanded manufacturing service offering and increased product development capabilities. The ultimate goal is to help our customers get their products to market faster and provide a competitive manufacturing solution,” said Brian Payson, vice president and general manager, SMC East.
