Additional capacity & capability at Belden's Tijuana plant
Belden have announced they have invested several million dollars into their plants including additional capability and capacity at their Tijunana plant in Mexico, which will now manufactuer identical products to those manufactuered in their European facilities.
As there have been serious shortages and distruptions lately within the indusry, Belden are working to reduce their lead times step by step back to the two weeks we were used to. The expansion will take place in waves over the next few weeks with the hand over date scheduled for April 30, 2018. They will first use the Tijuana plant to build up the inventory in Europe. The products and their composition will remain the same. They will use the same raw materials from the same suppliers, and they will maintain the same qualifications and certifications. Delivery will take place out of Germany using the exact Incoterms and other conditions as perviously agreed. All articles made in Mexico will be part of a make-to-stock process with inventory for sale kept in Germany.
The only thing that will change is the Country of Origin. However, they will maintain their capability to produce European versions which will be fulfilled at a premium price. If you prefer to receive these manufactuered in Europe, please let our sales team know and we can set up a new agreement.
Below is a list of articles that compose the first wave of articles produced in Meixco for the European market. Belden have already started producing these articles in Mexico to ensure that inventories are in place before the change-over-date, April 30 2018; irrespective of when the order was places, any of the articles below shipped on April 30 and after may have been made in Mexico, shipments bedore this date will have been produced in Europe. This will be documented on invoices accourding to legal requirements.
Belden are very happy tha they can now ensure delivery of these products in the lead times we expect from them.
