TE Connectivity centralizes DIN rail operations in Morocco

Production at manufacturing hub in Tangier, Morocco, designed to enhance TE supply chain efficiency and support future growth

TE Connectivity, global provider of connectors and sensors, has centralized its DIN rail qualified product line operations at its manufacturing campus in Tangier, Morocco. Completed at the end of January, this move consolidates TE’s DIN rail solutions, which are used to mount industrial control equipment, within a single strategic hub to scale production, streamline operations and serve global customers.

The move is a response to increasing global demand, particularly within the data center market. By centralizing production in Tangier, TE is expanding overall capacity to create a more resilient, efficient supply chain (Figure 1).

“The Tangier facility will serve as a strategic hub for R&D and the production of next-generation technological solutions,” said Abhijeet S. Paranjape, TE global product manager. “By consolidating operations, we are creating the necessary scale to launch new products that solve critical customer problems in data centers, robotics, HVAC, megawatt charging and battery energy storage.”

The facility is designed to reduce lead times, consolidate shipping and improve sustainability. Since many customers purchase both terminal blocks and DIN standard rail products, the combined setup in Tangier is designed to allow streamlined shipping.

TE says its Tangier facility is one of its most sustainable plants globally, designed to align with increasing customer focus on environmental, social, governance (ESG) and green manufacturing practices.
