Express Manufacturing, Inc., (EMI), now recognized as a World Class Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) provider, has established a dual foot-print, entering the International market by storm. EMI's formidable reputation for excellent service combined with nearly thirty (30) years at the same locations in Santa Ana, California and highly dedicated long-term employees, has earned them accolades as the largest privately held EMS provider in Southern California. This has provided the impetus for EMI to add EMI Asia Limited, a 120,000 sq. ft. factory in Dong Guan City, China. Its manufacturing facility was intentionally laid out to duplicate the same production processes that are currently utilized at EMI which promotes another form of cost savings for the customers.The ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 13485 certified, financially stable company is well-recognized for high-mix, low-to-medium volume as well as high volume, low mix printed circuit board assembly and system integration having built its reputation on three principles: total customer satisfaction, rapid response and streamlined efficiency.EMI serves a wide range of industrial markets including but not limited to medical, telecom, aerospace, semiconductor, instrumentation, test equipment, irrigation, commercial gaming, process control and oilfield products. Today, EMI serves customers all over the world throughout the US, N. America, S. America, Europe, Israel, Asia, Australia and New Zealand and anticipates this growth to continue.EMI also provides its customers with complete vertical integration -- from specialized Engineering Services (such as printed circuit board lay-out, proto-typing and test development) to Supply Chain Management, Manufacturing, Fulfillment Programs, Service and Refurbishment Depot Services -- this allows EMI to capture efficiencies, maintain cost advantages and deliver turnkey solutions to its customer base, first in the US and optionally, transitioning to China when the volume reaches an optimum threshold.
