STEX is pleased to announce the start of construction on a new two-story production building at our Ayutthaya, Thailand manufacturing site. This expansion marks an important step in strengthening our regional manufacturing footprint and preparing for future growth across multiple industries.

The new facility is scheduled for completion by the end of 2026 and reflects STEX’s long-term commitment to supply chain resilience, advanced manufacturing, and regulatory readiness.

Expanding Capacity to Support Global Demand

The new building will add approximately 2,500 square meters of production and operational space across two floors, allowing STEX to expand capacity while improving workflow efficiency and production flexibility.

Designed as a modern manufacturing environment, the facility will support:

  • Power cords and cable assemblies

  • Wire harness and custom interconnect solutions

  • Products serving the AI and electronics industries

  • Flexible layouts for future product lines and customer-specific projects

This expansion enables STEX to respond more effectively to increasing demand from global customers while maintaining high standards of quality and consistency.



Designed for Future Compliance and Growth

From the planning stage, the Ayutthaya expansion has been designed with future regulatory requirements in mind. In addition to operating under our existing ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 systems, the new facility layout and processes are being prepared to support ISO 13485 certification in the future.

This readiness positions STEX to serve customers in regulated sectors such as:

  • Medical and healthcare-related devices

  • IT infrastructure and data-related equipment

  • Precision electronics and mission-critical applications

By building compliance capability into the facility from day one, STEX ensures long-term scalability without disruption to operations.

Strategic Location in Southeast Asia

Thailand continues to play a critical role in STEX’s regional strategy. Located in Ayutthaya, just north of Bangkok, the plant benefits from strong industrial infrastructure, access to skilled labor, and efficient logistics connections to ports and airports.

The Thailand site complements STEX’s broader operational network, which includes:

  • A Shanghai-based trading company managing sourcing of cable materials, electronic components, and plastic parts

  • Strategic manufacturing collaboration with long-term partners in Kunshan and Dongguan, China

This multi-location structure provides customers with flexibility in country-of-origin planning, lead time optimization, and risk diversification.

Supporting Innovation and the AI and electronics Industry

The new Ayutthaya facility will place particular emphasis on supporting customers in the AI and electronics industries, where product reliability, traceability, and process control are critical.

Planned capabilities include:

  • Dedicated production areas for AI-related cable and interconnect products

  • Enhanced quality control and inspection workflows

  • Space allocation for semi-automated processes and future equipment upgrades

  • Improved material flow and warehouse coordination

These investments support STEX’s role as a reliable partner for customers requiring consistent performance and scalable production.

What This Means for Our Customers

With the completion of the new building by the end of 2026, customers working with STEX can expect:

  • Increased production capacity without compromising quality

  • Greater flexibility for customized or multi-region supply strategies

  • Readiness for future medical and regulated projects

  • Shorter response times and improved operational efficiency

This expansion reinforces STEX’s ability to grow alongside our customers and support long-term programs with confidence.

Looking Ahead

The start of construction at our Ayutthaya plant represents more than physical expansion—it reflects STEX’s continued investment in people, processes, and infrastructure to meet the evolving needs of global markets.

As construction progresses, we will continue to share updates on milestones and development as we move toward completion by the end of 2026.

We Connect Beyond.
