February 14, 2025 – GEIS today marked the first anniversary of its Thailand manufacturing facility with a major milestone: the first shipment of UL 489-certified miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) to customers in North America. Opened one year ago as part of GEIS’s global expansion strategy, the facility has rapidly evolved from an empty shell into a fully integrated, intelligent production base.

Over the past 12 months, the Thailand team has executed at speed and scale. Equipment installation, commissioning, and validation are complete. Production and ERP systems are alive, with refined processes now fully embedded. A core leadership team has been assembled, local staff trained, and trial production runs successfully validated alongside rigorous quality control protocols.

Meeting UL 489 requirements—the recognized North American benchmark for electrical safety and manufacturing excellence—demanded uncompromising quality management. The facility’s ability to produce and deliver UL-certified MCBs affirms GEIS’s world-class manufacturing standards and strengthens the company’s global supply chain capabilities. The Thailand operation is also certified to ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001.

“This first shipment is both a milestone and a new starting point,” said Peter Zhu, GM at GEIS Breaker Thailand. “In just one year, our team has turned vision into reality—delivering certified product to market and proving the strength of our global execution model.”

 

Looking ahead, the Thailand factory will continue to drive manufacturing optimization, pursue smart technology upgrades, and raise the bar on product quality and delivery performance. These efforts directly support GEIS’s mission to deliver safer, smarter, and greener electrical solutions to customers worldwide.

As GEIS marks this first anniversary, the company celebrates not only what has been achieved—but the new chapter this milestone opens in its global manufacturing strategy.
