Murata completes new production building at Izumo factory

The new production building – which is the result of a JPY 40 billion (EUR 328 million) investment – will provide the company with a total floor area of 41’205 square metres, a press release reads. The company says that the completion of the new production building will create the structures necessary to adapt to the projected increases in demand for ceramic parts; which are mainly caused by the increasing sophistication of electronic devices and use of electronics in automobiles.
