Applied Spectra Expands to Larger Facility

FREMONT, Calif. (April 23, 2012) – Applied Spectra, Inc. announced today that it has completed the relocation of its company headquarters to a larger facility in Fremont, CA. The new space is twice as large as ASI’s former location, allowing the company to expand its manufacturing and warehouse footprint and add a large training space for periodic LA and LIBS workshops.

The expanded space also includes two instrument demo rooms to showcase ASI’s state-of-the-art RT100 LIBS and J100 Femto LA instruments, and provides additional workspace and meeting rooms for the company’s growing workforce. The J100 Femto LA instrument is connected to a Quadrupole ICP-MS for LA-ICP-MS measurement demonstration.

“This relocation marks our third facility expansion in the past eight years,” said Dr. Jong Yoo, Executive VP and General Manager. “The new location increases our manufacturing capacity, which is critical due to increased product demand across various market segments. It’s allowed us to expand all aspects of our company operation including customer training and support. I’m grateful to all of our employees for their dedication and commitment to continued product innovation and the growth of our business.”
