JST Power Equipment Inc. Celebrates First Production Units from Malaysia Facility

July 12, 2025

JST took bold steps to expand its manufacturing footprint in Asia, launching a strategic initiative to establish a dedicated facility. Despite numerous challenges, the team succeeded—acquiring the building, designing operations, and producing the first U.S.-bound pad-mounted transformers by July 2025.

This achievement highlights JST’s unwavering commitment to excellence, speed, and service to North American customers. As electrification surges and demand continues to grow, JST is proud to support this vital movement with reliable, on-time transformer delivery—currently achieving lead times of just 30–32 weeks on mass production projects.

Trey Smith, Director of Transformers- JST Power Equipment Inc., stated: “We’ve worked tirelessly to make this vision a reality. I’m deeply grateful to our employees, leadership, board, and to the great country of Malaysia for allowing us to fast-track this initiative. This facility opens incredible opportunities for our customers across North and South America.”
