SOMERSET, NJ, April 13, 2021 – Today, MICRO, a full-service contract manufacturing organization specializing in precision components, sub-assemblies, and complete devices for minimally invasive surgical procedures, announces plans to expand its global footprint with a new manufacturing facility near San Jose, Costa Rica. As a leading worldwide provider with 75 years of manufacturing excellence, MICRO’s new Costa Rica facility will significantly increase its clean room assembly capacity to better serve its growing medical device customers with cost-effective medical device contract manufacturing solutions. The new facility will be located in the Zona Franca Metro business park.
“As the medical device industry continues to outsource manufacturing while consolidating supply chains, our customers require full-service contract manufacturers who can support everything from product and process development to component manufacturing and finished device assembly,” said Brian Semcer, President, MICRO. “As a trusted and valued partner to our clients, the new 32,000 square foot world-class facility in Costa Rica allows us to respond to our customers’ needs, continuing and reinforcing our relationship as a preferred supplier.”
The new Costa Rica facility is expected to open late 2021 with operations beginning in 2022. The Company plans to construct a new clean room assembly facility within the manufacturing center. This expansion combined with three facilities in New Jersey and strategic sourcing partnerships worldwide allows MICRO to provide ever-increasing capabilities and solutions to our customers through supply chain optimization and integration.
MICRO’s medical device division began 40 years ago developing ligation clips for use in surgical procedures and has grown to produce over a million endoscopic instruments annually in its environmentally controlled Class 8 clean room. Our Design For Manufacturability expertise allows us to help customers design components and assemblies optimized for production, keeping costs manageable and maximizing return on investment. MICRO continually invests in new technology, improved facilities, and employee training in order to take innovation to the next level and fulfill our Vision “To Help Our Customers Save Lives.”
