VLC Photonics moves PIC testing to a new, larger facility in Spain

Quantum ZeitgeistSeptember 17, 20263 min read

VLC Photonics completed a move of its PIC testing & assembly to a 1,545 m² facility in Paterna, Spain, following a phased relocation begun in November 2025.

VLC Photonics has completed its move to a larger, purpose-built facility in Paterna, Spain, now capable of testing over 1,000 photonic dies each month. The 1,545 m² space includes a 315 m² cleanroom certified to ISO Class 7, designed to support the increasing demand for photonic integrated circuit testing and assembly. The Hitachi Group company, originally a 2011 spin-off from the Universitat Politècnica de València, reports…
