Memjet’s global HQ in San Diego, California
The OEM’s current base is growing as a response to “new business segments, employee growth and [an] increase in [the] OEM ecosystem”.
The headquarters, in San Diego in the USA, will “combine Memjet’s two previous facilities” on the same site within a 25,000 square-foot building, and the company noted that the “state-of-the-art” facility will “encompass cutting-edge laboratories and corporate offices”. It stated that it “requires a larger facility to increase productivity”, as well as house its “growing employee base of scientists, engineers, technicians and go-to-market experts”.
The site will also house an “expansive demo area” for “new and potential customers”, alongside “enhanced” laboratories for development of inks, printheads and hardware. The OEM noted that it has “grown in market segments targeting production printing, labels, packaging and graphics”, and now provides “leading edge components and systems to nearly 40 OEMs on a global basis”.
Len Lauer, CEO of Memjet, stated: “Memjet has seen a tremendous amount of growth in both revenue and OEM customers utilising the technology, and we expect to multiply the growth in the years ahead. The decision to expand our San Diego footprint was an easy one to make in light of the increased number of employees to support the growing customer base and our continued need to expand our R&D capability across both ink and printhead technology.”
