With over 15,000 square feet now dedicated to the manufacture of its pressure sensor products, AST plans to increase manufacturing capacity to meet growing market demand.
"With triple the manufacturing space used in our former facility, our new high tech manufacturing headquarters will give us the increased capacity needed to support our manufacturing growth," states Michael P Eldredge, American Sensor Technologies Executive Vice President, COO/CFO.
Most importantly, AST is investing in people.
With forty full-time and three part-time employees in the new location, American Sensor Technologies is working to keep manufacturing in North America.
The new location is only five miles west of the previous facility, making the move simple for all employees.
AST is also investing in new equipment and technology such as test chambers and pressure calibrators to make its manufacturing lines more state-of-the-art in both unit output and quality.
In addition, the new facility will include more room for Research and Development.
"The new headquarters offers larger facilities to pursue technology development," notes Eldredge.
