Vertiv (NYSE: VRT), a global leader in critical digital infrastructure, today announced four new or expanding manufacturing facilities in the Americas, growing the company’s production capacity for infrastructure solutions, power management, and integrated cabinets. As data centre operators focus on scaling quickly and time to first token speed, Vertiv is uniquely positioned to help meet the rapidly evolving infrastructure and services requirements for AI factories, through its focus on innovation and manufacturing footprint.
“Vertiv sees AI as a long-term, secular trend, and we are accelerating our capacity expansions to anticipate the continued growth in demand,” said Vertiv CEO Giordano (Gio) Albertazzi. “Today’s announcement represents the most recent steps in our continuous capacity planning and deployment approach, as we further increase our regional and global footprint. We remain committed to our strategy of delivering future-ready, high-density solutions that enable our customers to plan confidently for multiple generations of compute ahead.”
- In South Carolina, two additional manufacturing facilities focus on Vertiv™ infrastructure solutions technologies vital to data centre deployment speed and are expected to increase regional capacity by ~7x when fully ramped. Vertiv™ integrated power modules are complete modular power infrastructure that can speed deployment of power systems by up to 50% over traditional builds, while Vertiv™ SmartRun converged, prefabricated white space infrastructure solution is designed to greatly accelerate and optimise data centre white space fit-out. Vertiv SmartRun is delivered as a unified system for high-density busway, liquid cooling piping, networking, and containment, with on-site deployment time up to 85% faster than traditional methods.
- Vertiv’s racks and containment business in Pennsylvania launched an additional facility to increase manufacturing capacity of cabinets with integrated cooling systems for AI applications in high-density data centres. These cabinets enable simplified, repeatable, and accelerated deployment compared to traditional onsite integration.
- An expansion in Mexicali, Mexico is anticipated to increase regional capacity by ~45% for power conversion, conditioning and distribution technologies for high-density AI applications and more traditional loads.
Vertiv’s innovation and portfolio strategy reflects the demands of the AI revolution, which requires infrastructure that works as one integrated system. From grid to chip and chip to heat reuse, Vertiv delivers end-to-end infrastructure where power, cooling, IT, and services operate in unison and are built for multiple compute generations ahead. Backed by the recent regional manufacturing capacity and an industry-leading end-to-end portfolio, Vertiv is enabling customers to deploy efficiently and scale seamlessly.
