Brewer Science to Build New Manufacturing Facility

Brewer Science, Inc., announced plans to build a high-volume manufacturing facility in Vichy, MO, to produce materials for manufacturing next-generation smartphones, tablet computers, and other microelectronic devices. The announcement means new jobs for Missouri and an expansion of the state’s technology footprint. Brewer Science, one of the world’s leading technology companies, is part of the emerging I-44 technology corridor in Missouri, spanning across the state from St. Louis to Joplin.

The new facility will be located at the Rolla National Airport, approximately 12 miles from Brewer Science’s headquarters in Rolla, MO. This new investment in the growth of Brewer Science will provide increased capacity for high-volume manufacturing of specialty materials that meet the extremely stringent specifications required by today’s global microelectronics marketplace.

Brewer Science specializes in technology that has made electronic devices smaller, thinner, lighter, and more powerful. Under the leadership of Dr. Terry Brewer, founder and president, Brewer Science has become a major Missouri employer that has been designing and manufacturing new technology products since 1981. The expansion will bring additional high-value manufacturing jobs to the state of Missouri.

“Brewer Science is excited to be growing and expanding Missouri’s manufacturing footprint as well as its technology footprint,” said Dr. Brewer. “The expansion demonstrates our commitment to our customers by providing additional capacity and capabilities to support the complex product needs of the industry. Brewer Science technology is a part of products such as smartphones, tablet computers, cameras, games, and many other electronic devices. The new facility will provide the company with multiple manufacturing locations in Missouri and will bring additional jobs to the state.”
