The new space will increase the square footage of the company's existing production facility and headquarters in Houston, Texas, by more than three times.
HOUSTON, Jan. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- United Imaging, a worldwide frontrunner in cutting-edge medical imaging and radiotherapy technology, has secured additional production and office facilities in the greater Houston area. The newly acquired space in Pearland, Texas will increase the company's existing manufacturing capacity by more than three times, significantly expanding their current operations at the North American headquarters located on Kirby Drive. This development comes just over four years after the company inaugurated its existing production site.
Since then, United Imaging has been consistently ramping up its production in the U.S., with all four imaging modalities currently offered seeing local manufacturing take place in Texas over the past four years. Additionally, all essential spare parts are already housed in Houston and in various stocking locations nationwide.
"According to Jeffrey M. Bundy, PhD, CEO of United Imaging Healthcare North America, 'The rising demand coupled with enhanced manufacturing capabilities has led to a surge in hiring.' Since 2021, the average annual growth in U.S. headcount has been around 60%."
The close location to the ports of Houston offers a strategic advantage that the global company has been capitalizing on for several years, expanding its operations in South America and beyond. Recently, United Imaging revealed its initial product registrations in Canada. Since 2011, it has established installations in over 75 countries around the globe and celebrated its 30,000th unit installation earlier this summer, which took place in the United States.
