Pivotal Systems Corporation, a provider of advanced gas flow control solutions across semiconductor and high-tech industries, announced the opening of its first manufacturing facility in South Korea. This new site represents a major step forward in the company’s global expansion.
The grand opening ceremony for the new facility in South Korea is scheduled for October 15-17, celebrating Pivotal’s strengthened ties with key partners in the region.
The new facility will support Pivotal’s mission to expand its presence in key Asian markets and strategically position the company closer to major semiconductor equipment manufacturers as part of their global manufacturing footprint.
South Korea, with its growing scale in semiconductor manufacturing and emerging leadership in the industry, will be a key focus for Pivotal’s regional expansion.
The location will manufacture Pivotal’s full suite of innovative gas flow control technologies, including new products launched earlier this year at SEMICON West and SEMICON Taiwan 2024.
“With the semiconductor market rapidly evolving to support the growth of emerging AI-driven applications and touching everything we do every day, it is critical that we expand our manufacturing footprint to be closer to our customers and R&D facilities,” said Jan-Yu Weng, CEO of Pivotal Systems. “Our products solve our customers’ gas management needs and feature built-in intelligence that integrates data seamlessly into customer operations, enabling them to optimize production and drive smart data rich AI integration into their own factories more effectively.”
The new facility positions Pivotal closer to its key industry partners, enabling faster delivery, dedicated support, and a higher level of responsiveness to meet growing customer demand.
“This new site brings us closer to our customers, ensuring we can respond and scale more rapidly to their needs and deliver industry-leading solutions,” Weng added.
The expansion follows Pivotal’s acquisition by OmegaX Inc. last year, which has driven significant growth and accelerated the company’s strategic initiatives. Since the acquisition, Pivotal has introduced several groundbreaking products, including the GFC-X and Flow Ratio Controller, which deliver unprecedented precision and efficiency in semiconductor manufacturing. The new facility will further strengthen Pivotal’s ability to lead in next-generation semiconductor technologies that support AI and other high-performance applications.
Pivotal’s advanced gas flow control systems are designed to minimize environmental impact by reducing gas usage and improving overall efficiency. The new manufacturing facility will play a key role in supporting the company’s sustainability goals, lowering its global carbon footprint, and contributing to an eco-friendlier supply chain.
