The next generation of gas source and distribution systems will be manufactured at the new $2.5m SEMAT Center for global customers of Applied Energy Systems and its SEMI-GAS Systems Division.

The 16,000sq ft, two-story facility will incorporate green conscious materials into the construction, including LED lighting and solar panels.

Applied Energy Systems president Steve Buerkel said the new building provides the company the extra space to develop better products in the community.

US-based Applied Energy Systems is a manufacturer of industry-leading ultra-high purity gas source and distribution systems.
