28.1.2025 16:31:53 EET | Scanfil Oyj | News
Scanfil acquired SRX Malaysia on 4 October 2024. Due to increasing customer demand, Scanfil invests EUR 4.3 million in new SMT (Surface-mount technology) and THT (Through Hole Technology) lines for electronics production.
“Currently, SRX Malaysia has four SMT lines, and the new modern SMT and THT lines will significantly increase capacity and improve quality control” says Scanfil’s VP of Asian Operations Christian Kesten, and continues “From our previous talks with customers, we knew there was a possible demand for Malaysian manufacturing in our customer base. The need for investment confirms this perception. At the same time, with this investment, we are adjusting the factory layout and warehouse management for the future”.
The Malaysian factory, located in Johor Bahru, is specialized in complex box build. It has a production area of approximately 5,000 m² and employs approximately 170 people.
"I am delighted to see that our strategic acquisition of SRX has been positively received by our customers. We will continue to develop SRX operations in a flexible manner to meet customer demand," states Scanfil’s CEO Christophe Sut.
The investment starts in February 2025 and should be in production in the second half of 2025.

Scanfil täyttää 50 vuotta – pienestä sieviläisestä verstaasta globaaliksi sopimusvalmistuskonserniksi4.6.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Uutinen
Scanfil rekisteröitiin kaupparekisteriin 4. kesäkuuta 1976, kun Jorma J. Takanen aloitti yritystoiminnan veljensä autotallissa Sievissä, Pohjois-Pohjanmaalla. Yhtiön nimi viittaa sen ensimmäisiin tuotteisiin, suodattimiin, mutta liiketoiminta löysi pian uuden suunnan mekaniikassa ja elektroniikassa. 1990-luku oli Scanfilille voimakkaan kasvun aikaa. Liikevaihto kasvoi viidestä miljoonasta eurosta 220 miljoonaan euroon. Yhtiö listautui Helsingin pörssiin vuonna 2002 ja kansainvälistyi laajentamalla toimintaansa Unkariin, Kiinaan ja Viroon. Tänään, 50 vuotta perustamisestaan, Scanfil on globaali sopimusvalmistaja, jolla on 16 tuotantolaitosta neljällä mantereella ja yli 4 700 työntekijää. Vuoden 2026 liikevaihtoennuste on 940–1 060 miljoonaa euroa. Merkkipäivää juhlistetaan tänään kahdella merkittävällä julkistuksella. Anitra Komulaisen kirjoittama teos Kyllä se oli semmoinen savotta – Scanfilin historia (Siltala) julkaistaan tänään ja kertoo yhtiön viiden vuosikymmenen tarinan. Samalla
