AUSTIN, Texas, May 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Flex's (NASDAQ: FLEX) Critical Power Business, Anord Mardix, today announced a significant expansion of its European operations to enhance data center power offerings. The company recently acquired a new manufacturing site in Bielsko-Biała, Poland, doubling Flex's power product capacity in Europe from 616,000 to 1,200,000 square feet2 to meet rising customer demand for AI-driven power solutions. Flex has strategically established over 11 million square feet of regionalized manufacturing capacity in Europe, to better serve local demand.

Flex is expanding in Poland as part of its global growth strategy to invest in essential power and data center technologies and sites to meet the growing customer demand. The new Polish site comes after opening a second facility in Dundalk, adding 120,000 square feet3, doubling Anord Mardix's capacity in Ireland. The Dundalk facility, named D2, assembles switchgear products to efficiently meet the rising global demand for reliable data center power, fueled by AI growth.

Additionally, the company recently opened a new U.S. critical power product manufacturing and assembly facility in Dallas, Texas, and made two important acquisitions: Crown Technical Systems, which specializes in power distribution solutions, and JetCool Technologies, which added liquid cooling products to the Flex data center portfolio.

"Our expansion in Europe represents a pivotal moment for Flex as we accelerate our global manufacturing capabilities to address data center power, heat, and scale challenges in the AI era," said Chris Butler, president of Embedded and Critical Power at Flex. "We are committed to delivering next-generation power infrastructure solutions that not only maximize computing performance but also significantly reduce deployment times for our customers. This investment allows us to align closely with the demands of rapid data center expansion worldwide."
