Global Manufacturing

 

Ci Design has two global manufacturing centers (over 20,000 square feet total) that can handle the tasks of high volume production and smaller, more sophisticated builds.

 

Each production member is supported by a graphically illustrated documentation system showing every detail of the build. Components are inspected upon arrival. Further testing is performed during the assembly process. A final inspection completes the process before the finished product is packaged and shipped.

Our goal is to have products available to ship directly from our warehouse to you...exactly when you need them.

 

 

Environmental Care

 

Ci Design is committed to protecting the environment and has put it into action by lead-free manufacturing and control of the usage of other materials to implement RoHS-compliant.

 

Under RoHS (Restriction of Certain Hazardous Substances), the European Legislation, after July 1, 2006, lead, hazardous substances, and other materials from most electronic components, products, and assemblies will be required to be reduced or removed.

We are already shipping high volumes of RoHS compliant products and packages to meet the demand
