The main activities will be the repair of the dry backing pump range. Other products will follow in the coming months.
The service center is located within Kulim Hi-Tech Park (KHTP) at Kulim, Kedah state, in northern Malaysia. KHTP was completed in 1996, as the first fully integrated Hi-Tech Park in Malaysia. It occupies a total area of 4,510 acres and is only 40 minutes away from the Penang International Airport.

Several of Pfeiffer Vacuum’s major customers are within a 15 minute drive from the new service center.

Nearly 40% of our business is related to Asia. So we are quite happy to be close to Malaysia today”, said Dr. Matthias Wiemer, Management Board Member at Pfeiffer Vacuum Technology AG.
“Furthermore, this service center is in complete compliance with our policy of sustainability. We want to take care of the safety of our employees and the safety of our environment”, added Eric Taberlet, President of the Business Unit Semiconductor & Coating.
