AIM - Soldadura de Mexico Receives C-TPAT Certification
March 31, 2016 | AIM SolderEstimated reading time: 1 minute
AIM Solder, a leading global manufacturer of solder assembly materials for the electronics industry, is pleased to announce that its Juarez, Mexico facility has been awarded the C-TPAT certification. With the C-TPAT certification, AIM - Soldadura de Mexico’s shipments will experience fewer and faster Customs examinations, allowing for quicker delivery times.
Launched in 2001, the Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism Certification is a joint government business partnership formed to help supply chains increase border security. In today’s JIT supply chain industry, a delay in lead times can result in a loss of money and customers. The C-TPAT certification gives companies secure, quality lead times with the ability to move quickly across borders. The C-TPAT certification will give AIM the ability to move to the front of inspection lines at the border, as well as access to the Free and Secure Trade lanes at land borders.
“AIM is pleased to have received the C-TPAT certification,” said AIM’s Executive Vice President, Assembly Materials Division, David Suraski. “In addition to good corporate citizenship, which is extremely important to us, this certification is another step in our continuing effort to provide our customers with unsurpassed service and products.”
