Addressing rising AI-driven demand for data centre infrastructure across North America, EMS company Flex has opened a new facility in Dallas, Texas, to boost its production of power products.
Electronics manufacturing service (EMS) provider Flex has announced the opening of a new 400,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Dallas, aimed at boosting its US production capacity for power products. The facility will enhance Flex’s grid-to-chip data centre power infrastructure solutions, such as power pods, power distribution units, and low-voltage switchgear.
With this expansion, Flex eyes to address the growing demand for power infrastructure driven by the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) adoption more efficiently, helping reduce lead times for American customers.
The Dallas facility will also serve as a central hub for Flex’s expanding customer base, combining its power pod fabrication and assembly with utility-grade capabilities.
This move follows the company’s acquisition of Crown Technical Systems in October 2024, strengthening its ability to deliver faster and more efficient distribution across North America.
Flex’s President of Embedded and Critical Power, Chris Butler, highlighted the importance of the new facility in addressing the increasing demand for reliable, scalable power infrastructure as AI adoption accelerates.
He stated that the Dallas facility positions them to provide “next-generation” power solutions that help customers maximise computing performance, reinforcing the company’s commitment to tackling the power challenges faced by AI-enabled data centres.
As part of its broader U.S. growth strategy, Flex continues to invest in expanding its capabilities to serve the data centre market.
