HAVING completed its expansion for its printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturing operations in Penang and Suzhou, China, GUH Holdings Bhd is ready to bounce back after slowing down for three quarters since the fourth quarter of 2012.

In the second half of that year, the group injected RM20mil to expand its production capacities of the Penang and Suzhou plants by about 50% to 807,000 sq ft from about 592,000 sq ft to position itself in the higher-value double-sided and multi-layered PCB segment.
