Currently, Thailand ranks as the leading PCB manufacturing base in ASEAN and among the top five globally, underscoring the country’s readiness to play a key role in the global technology supply chain.”
“Unitech PCB, a leading global manufacturer of HDI PCB, choosing to establish its first production base in Thailand at S Angthong underscores the estate’s strong potential as a strategic investment hub for advanced technology industries. The industrial estate is equipped with modern infrastructure and comprehensive utilities, including a highly stable power supply from three combined-cycle power plants with a total generating capacity of over 400 MW, supported by 22 kV and 115 kV power distribution systems to meet large-scale and high-stability electricity demand. It also offers a high-quality, clean water supply through an ultrafiltration system capable of producing up to 10,000 cubic meter per day, alongside environmentally friendly management practices under the Eco Factory & Green Industry concept. These strengths enable the estate to support long-term industrial investment and growth, while maintaining a balanced approach between business operations, community well-being, and environmental sustainability.” Chairath added.
