Ge-Shen, a B2B leader in design, development and technology-driven manufacturing products for clients globally, has announced today its intentions to double down on its efforts and meet future manufacturing demands in the medical, food and household sector by investing in a 4,863 sq. ft. facility with 18 injection moulding machines, ranging from 60 tonnes to 200 tonnes within it – destined to cater to its growing client base around the USA.
Having opened its first certified ISO Class-8 (FED STD 209E – 100K) clean room in Penang in 2019, Ge-Shen now expands its operation with another in Johor to better cater to its US based clients, now encompassing over 30% of Ge-Shen’s business.
National Environmental Balancing Bureau (NEBB) cleanroom certified to 100K (100,000 particle count and below) based on ISO14644:2015 standards, the cleanroom has airflow of 20 cycles per hour. Temperature is controlled at 25c +/- 1c with a relative humidity of 60% +/- 5%. The room is designed with minimum dead corners, external material feeding and vacuum-operated feed system, to minimize material movement.
Individuals are required to wear protective clothing like hairnets, face masks, gloves, smock and shoe cover to maintain the highest safety and quality standards at all times. With good design and equipment that controls temperature and humidity fitted with HEPA filters that eliminates airborne particles, Ge-Shen is able to produce high quality parts in a dust free environment, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
Louis Lau, Executive Director of Ge-Shen Corporation, comments: “The successful certification of the 100K Cleanroom is the start of a very exciting journey. We are also currently training to be certified in ISO22000 for Food Safety Management, Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), and Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) – and aiming to complete training by the end of June 2021.
“Increased demand and enquires for medical injection, moulding, and facilities capable to handle food related products led to the decision to invest in this upgrade and expand our operations nearly 6 months ago. Today it has become reality. All thanks to the dedicated teams at Ge-Shen for working tirelessly and ensuring zero disruptions on day-to-day operations, while also overseeing the design and implementation of the renovations.
“We are still hungry for growth. Since the start of the pandemic, we have increased our machine capacity by more than 20% in our Johor plant alone. With the additional injection moulding machines in our Johor plant, we are looking to better meet the needs of current strategic partners and grow new partnerships with customers across the US, especially in the medical, life sciences, food, home and lifestyle product sectors.”
