TUCSON, Ariz., June 26, 2023 - The Veriflo Division of Parker Hannifin Corporation, the global leader in motion and control technologies, has completed the expansion of its ultra-high purity production environment in Tucson, Arizona. The upgraded cleanroom facility features enhanced capabilities and cleanliness in assembly operations, making it an ISO class 5 cleanroom that meets the stringent standards of the semiconductor industry.

“The expansion of the assembly space has resulted in a state-of-the-art cleanroom, which will be a source of pride for our team and value for our customers," said Gianmarco Gaviglio, general manager, Veriflo Division. "The new area will help us achieve more versatility in production and support future growth.”

As the semiconductor industry advances to smaller line widths, and shrinking wafer nodes heighten the risk of particle contamination, there is an increased demand for cleaner valves and other components for chemical and gas delivery. Parker’s new cleanroom, utilized for component cleaning and assembly, enables Veriflo to meet the increasingly stringent cleanliness standards of the semiconductor industry.

“The expansion of the assembly space, coupled with the upgrade to a world-class cleanroom, will minimize particulates in our products to ensure the highest quality and cleanest valves for our customers,” added Mike Nagle, Veriflo’s global product manager. “This investment in our Tucson facility reflects our commitment to providing the semiconductor industry with the highest quality precision flow control solutions for years to come.”

Following several years of rapid growth in the semiconductor market, Parker Veriflo’s cleanroom expansion builds on investments already made in new CNC 5-Axis mills and lathes. The certification of this new state-of-the-art cleanroom and improved capacity demonstrates Parker's long-term commitment to supporting the semiconductor industry.

“This investment in our Tucson facility is a testament to our commitment to providing the semiconductor industry with the highest quality precision flow control solutions,” said Denis Pennington, Veriflo's marketing and sales manager. “The expansion of our capacity and capabilities will enable us to meet the needs of the industry for years to come.”
