Elma Electronic Inc., a Swiss-based manufacturer of electronic enclosures used in industrial and military applications, will relocate and expand its manufacturing operations in Gwinnett. According to a recent press release, “the company also manufactures circuit boards, power supplies, cooling fans, and monitoring circuits used in harsh conditions including challenging thermal environments and outdoor settings.”
“This new facility will allow us to streamline our manufacturing and production lines,” said Badri Rajan, vice president of operations. “It will enable us to be even more agile and efficient in meeting our customers’ rigorous requirements.”
Located just a short distance away from their current location at 1775 MacLeod Drive in Lawrenceville, the move consolidates the cabinet and enclosure operations and represents 93 new jobs.
“It was very important that we find a site close to our existing location to minimize any quality of life impact on our current employees and we are extremely pleased with the results,” said Shan Morgan, president of Elma Electronic Inc.
The new 150,000-square-foot facility, combined with new capital equipment investments, is expected to increase efficiency, enabling Elma’s further growth in industrial markets. The move is expected to be complete by July 1.
