Cleanroom laundry opens in the Philippines
Sumitomo Corp. has established a laundry service near Manila to process cleanroom apparel worn at electronics plants.
Sumitomo set up shop in a $150 million industrial park being developed in the province of Batangas to accommodate local companies. The first phase of construction has been completed. In March, Sumitomo began supplying industrial gases to tenants; the company plans to construct a power plant to supply the complex with electricity and steam. — TGW
