Slide 2: Electronic Packaging Needs Does your business ship memory modules, circuit boards, telecommunication devices or hard drives? Are you looking for a cost effective custom thermoforming company to help address your electronic packaging needs? Then you have come to the right place. This presentation will provide information that will help businesses choose a high quality custom thermoforming company.
Slide 3: Quality Electronic Packaging If you are looking to address your electronic packaging needs you should choose a custom thermoforming company that specializes in providing cost effective thermoformed protective packaging trays and clamshells for such delicate electronic components as memory modules, circuit boards, telecommunication devices and hard drives. High quality thermoformed ESD parts offer both source reduction and ESD protection since a single tray and clamshell can replace the more traditional bag/box/foam electronic packaging ultimately saves businesses time and money.
Slide 4: Quality Electronic Packaging Quality thermoformed trays and clamshells can be stored efficiently to simplify handling, reduce inventory costs, reduce assembly time, guarantee physical protection and provide clarity for inspection and barcode scanning. Quality electronic packaging combines protection and exceptional strength with certified static control properties to create the ideal packaging material for passive devices and static-sensitive components. Quality electronic packaging trays and clamshells for passive and active devices should be made of only high quality MIL-B-81705C and EIA-541 certified materials.
