CALUMET, MI – Calumet Electronics is expanding its printed circuit board manufacturing operations to meet market demand with an addition to its existing facility and the purchase of a neighboring historic building.

The fabricator broke ground in October on the 35,000 sq. ft. building addition. The first of many construction phases is expected to be complete in the fall of 2021. The building will expand Calumet’s corporate office space and serve as its headquarters.

“This company was founded with the idea that it could provide family-sustaining jobs after the local mines closed,” said Steve Vairo, president and CEO. “Fifty years later we are still growing and providing more and better opportunities for individuals to stay or come back to our community. I am proud of the great people who work at Calumet Electronics and the positive economic impact the company has on our local economy. The expansion allows us to do even more.”

“Calumet is one of just a few American printed circuit board makers who manufacture entirely in the United States,” said Todd Brassard, VP and COO. “We do it all here in Calumet. We have the industry’s most competitive technologies, engineering bench strength and manufacturing expertise to support key sectors of the electronics market, including medical, defense and aerospace, along with the critical infrastructure needs of electric utilities and national security applications. We are ideally positioned for more growth.”
