November 13, 2024 | VentecEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Ventec International Group and high-tech design and manufacturing company Teltonika announce that Ventec is to become supply chain partner and primary supplier of PCB base materials to Teltonika, which is preparing to open a new PCB manufacturing plant at its base in Vilnius, Lithuania.
Teltonika has a wide range of innovative products and services, including telemetry and IoT (Internet of Things) devices, energy systems including EV-charging solutions, advanced medical equipment, and networking, with ODM and EMS services including PCB assembly, testing, and box-build. The new PCB manufacturing plant will produce high-performance boards for use within Teltonika’s own product divisions and to commercial EMS customers.
Ventec has a broad portfolio of substrate materials to fulfil Teltonika’s wide-ranging production needs, including a selection of lead-free FR4 formulas, as well as advanced halogen free FR15.1 materials. In addition, Ventec’s low-loss materials cover a wide performance spectrum for efficiency-focused, high-speed networking and computing systems, and thermal substrates help maximize reliability in highly dissipative applications such as power conversion, and rapid EV charging.
“With their extensive and high-performing product portfolio, resilient, integrated supply chain, local logistical and technical support, and commitment to ongoing technological development, Ventec is the perfect supplier to support our new PCB manufacturing division,” said Tomas Auruškevičius, CEO of Teltonika’s PCB manufacturing plant. “As we ramp up in-house PCB production to support our diverse electronic manufacturing activities, we expect this to be a long and successful collaboration, founded on our mutual commitment to sustainability and reliance on creative supply chain and technical innovation.”
“We are excited to win the trust of Teltonika and bring our fully owned distribution and service center model to the project, which will deliver a powerful boost to PCB manufacturing in Europe,” said Jason Chung, Ventec International Group CEO. “We have committed ourselves over many years to developing our model, which combines global reach with high levels of local service and support.”
“Teltonika has recognized our capability to deliver technically advanced products, efficiently, and tailor the supply chain to meet our customers’ service, technical and commercial goals, with full local support from Ventec personnel,” added Mark Goodwin, COO of Ventec. “This is another strong validation of our work and commitment to the EMEA market.”
