From smartphones, digital cameras and televisions to video game consoles, microwaves, refrigerators and coffee makers, printed circuit boards (PCBs) lie at the heart of modern consumer electronics. As the undisputed leader in flexible PCB (FPCB) design, manufacturing and marketing in South Korea, SI Flex is at the forefront of an industry poised to grow 10 per cent year-on-year globally and reach US$27 billion by 2022.
At the helm of the FPCB industry demand is Asia-Pacific – the largest consumer electronics market globally. With an independent manufacturing system, automated facilities and unsurpassable technological expertise, SI Flex holds the keys to unlocking the region’s FPCB revenue potential.
A pioneer behind FPCB production in South Korea since 1988 and the first industry player to enter China in 1997, SI Flex aims to become the world’s leading FPCB total solutions provider – beginning with an expanded Asian network that is comprised of three factories in China and one in Vietnam.
“We are a company that’s growing very fast along with our customers such as Samsung, so we are also expanding to more global markets,” says Won Dong-il, president and CEO. “One of our strengths is our ability to strategically foresee market trends and customer needs. We are all young people, so decision-making is fast and we are quick to respond. Our clients appreciate that.”
Apart from its FPCBs and printed board assembly modules with various applications, SI Flex also offers a portfolio of electronic components and products such as virtual reality devices, smart bands, drones, light-emitting diodes, liquid crystal display modules and hand-held projectors.
