BTU International, a leading global supplier of advanced thermal processing equipment for electronics assembly, today announced plans to expand its manufacturing operations into Singapore. This strategic expansion is designed to mitigate risk, reduce tariff exposure, and enable BTU’s Shanghai facility to increase production and add new product lines for non-tariff-restricted markets.
BTU International will begin shipping reflow ovens from Singapore effective October of 2025. The expansion diversifies BTU’s production footprint, optimizes global capacity, and strengthens its ability to deliver industry-leading reflow ovens to customers worldwide.
“Global trade dynamics require proactive strategies,” said Rob DiMatteo, Vice President and General Manager at BTU International. “By expanding into Singapore, we are safeguarding our customers from tariff-related cost increases while leveraging the region’s advanced infrastructure and skilled talent pool. This move also allows our Shanghai facility to focus on producing more product lines for non-tariff-restricted markets,” added DiMatteo.
This expansion will mitigate risk and tariff exposure for BTU’s global customers, maintain competitive pricing and product availability, improve lead times through optimized regional logistics, and support sustainability goals with modern, energy-efficient facilities.
BTU International remains committed to delivering the same level of innovation and reliability customers expect. The expansion will not affect product specifications, performance standards, or service quality.
