Shanghai (Nantong) Unitech Electronics Co Ltd, a high-tech electronics manufacturer that develops cutting-edge printed circuit boards (PCB), is experiencing rapid growth and staying ahead of its competition thanks to its strength in R&D.
The company was invested by Unitech Printed Circuit Board Corp, which was established in 1984 in Taiwan. The company's first production base in the Chinese mainland was initially set up in Shanghai but moved to the Nantong National High-tech Industrial Development Zone in 2018.
Printed circuit boards, the company's main product, can be widely used in vehicle navigation, brake and audio systems, mobile phone motherboard modules, sports watches, bracelets and bluetooth headset data transmission modules, and signal transmission modules in 5G communication equipment.
Relying on its strong R&D team, the company provides optimized PCB design solutions for customers around the world.
Last July, the first phase of the company, which received $360 million in investment, was officially put into production, achieving sales revenue of 526 million yuan ($81.85 million) that year despite the adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The annual sales are expected to exceed 1 billion yuan this year.
Advanced machines are used to realize highly automated production lines which ensure output consistency and quality, according to Zhang Jincai, a worker at the No 2 manufacturing department.
The company is confident about its future due to the favorable local policies and highly efficient government services offered to it, not to mention the optimal business environment. The Nantong National High-tech Industrial Development Zone provided 66 talent apartments to accommodate many of its workers and also organized recruitment activities to help with labor shortages.
The company is considering expanding production capacity and widening its business scope, according to the company's deputy general manager Zhang Dexiong.
