RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CA – Arlon EMD has announced an expansion of its factory here, which will include the addition of two prepreg treaters and a press line.

The expansion will allow a larger portfolio of products to be manufactured in North America with an eye on responsiveness to the American market as well as risk mitigation and capacity surge mitigation, the company said.

Arlon EMD, which was acquired by Elite Materials Company in 2020, has been a provider of high performance thermoset substrates for mission critical printed circuit boards manufactured for high endurance and long-life programs for 45 years.

EMC is the world’s largest manufacture of halogen-free and HDI copper clad laminates, with plants in Taiwan and China, and a new factory currently being built in Penang, Malaysia, with a planned completion date in late 2024.
