    UC Components, Inc. is pleased to announce upgrades to their certified ISO Class 5 Cleanroom.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

    Morgan Hill, California, January, 2021 – UC Components, Inc. announces the completion of their recent renovation and upgrade of their certified ISO Class 5 Cleanroom.  

    In 2019 UC Components, Inc. of Morgan Hill, CA undertook Phase 1 of their planned cleanroom upgrade, expanding from 1,000 to 1,500 square feet of ISO Class 5 cleanroom environment.  The addition of a dedicated packaging area with powered HEPA filter upgrade, increased LED lighting, and improved workflow demonstrated UC’s commitment to on-time delivery of the RediVac® line of vented, plated, coated, cleaned, and baked fasteners for vacuum and clean-critical applications.

    Recently completed Phase 2 of the UC Components cleanroom upgrade saw the original 1,000 square feet renovated on all aspects of Phase 1 along with various equipment improvements; all with minimal customer delivery impact. Stated UC Components, Inc. President, Rick Anderson, “The credit goes to the UC team and our partners for the minimal disruption to operations throughout the whole project. The improvements represent a quality upgrade in both working environment and through-put. UC Components is poised for growth.”

    This environment is critical to minimize contamination from airborne and surface particles, gases or liquids, or static electricity and provides a clean and protected manufacturing, cleaning, and packaging environment. UC’s RediVac® products processed in this environment means they require no further cleaning or processing prior to installation which saves the customer time and money. The entire process is handled in one facility which ensures a higher quality product with full traceability. RediVac® = Ready for vacuum service, now.

    Anticipating increased demand throughout the Semiconductor, Aerospace, and Medical industries, UC Components has invested in capacity expansion and quality commitment (ISO 9001:2015 Certification) to ensure the best resulting product for a diverse customer base.

    UC Components, Inc. is open Monday through Friday from 8:00am to 5:00pm PST. More information about the company, their services, capabilities, and the products they offer can be found on their recently redesigned website at www.uccomponents.com.

    UC Components, Inc. supports Second Harvest with a $10K donation to help build a hunger-free community

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

    Morgan Hill, California, September, 2022 – UC Components, Inc. announces a corporate donation of $10,000 to Second Harvest of Silicon Valley to help them “take a slice out of hunger” and help build a hunger-free community.

    UC Components, Inc. is committed to doing its part for the communities they work in and around and from which they draw their employees. Second Harvest of Silicon Valley was chosen as one of several local and national institutions for this year’s UC Components, Inc. Corporate Giving Initiative due to their direct contributions to the greater Silicon Valley area and their vital food insecurity work.

    “It is a proud moment for the UC Components family to make a difference to families facing food insecurity in and around our own Silicon Valley. This donation is merely the first step in what we anticipate to be an ongoing relationship with Second Harvest of Silicon Valley, including volunteering this holiday season.” Stated company President Rick Anderson.

    UC Components, Inc. knows that this donation will help immediately. They also have ongoing initiatives to continue supporting and facilitating feeding local families and helping to battle food insecurity.

    Even before COVID-19, Second Harvest was responding to a level of food insecurity in Silicon Valley that indicated there was already a crisis, providing groceries to a record number of clients every month. The economic crisis created by the pandemic has pushed many families deeper into poverty and caused others to seek food assistance for the very first time. They now serve an average of 450,000 people every month, an 80% increase over pre-pandemic levels.

    Since these counties were ordered to shelter in place, Second Harvest has been on the frontline every day, making sure that anyone who needs nutritious food can get it. As they have seen the need for food assistance explode, they have also had to quickly overhaul their operations to implement social distancing protocols that keep their clients, volunteers, and staff safe, while dramatically increasing their food distribution.

    The continued support of the local community is critical because they anticipate the elevated and significant need for food assistance to stay steady for years to come.

    About Second Harvest of Silicon Valley

    Second Harvest is committed to doing whatever it takes to build a hunger-free community. That means distributing nutritious food to nearly every neighborhood in Silicon Valley, leveraging every available food resource, and collaborating with organizations and people who share their belief that hunger is unacceptable.

    UC Components, Inc. supports Second Harvest with another $10K donation during their “season of good will” donation drive

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

    Morgan Hill, California, December, 2022 – UC Components, Inc. announces a corporate donation of $10,000 to Second Harvest of Silicon Valley to help build a hunger-free community during their “season of good will” donation drive.

    UC Components, Inc. is committed to doing its part for the communities they work in and around and from which they draw their employees. Second Harvest of Silicon Valley was chosen as one of several local and national institutions for this year’s UC Components, Inc. Corporate Giving Initiative due to their direct contributions to the greater Silicon Valley area and their vital food insecurity work.

    “2023 sure has started with a bang in Silicon Valley with flooding, COVID-19, and the flu creating a perfect storm. All the more reason for UC Components, Inc. to kick-off our 2023 Giving Program with Second Harvest of Silicon Valley. We look forward to making an even bigger difference this year than last. Join us!” Stated company President Rick Anderson.

    UC Components, Inc. knows that this donation will help families struggling with food insecurity through the holiday season and into the New Year. They also have ongoing initiatives to continue supporting and facilitating feeding local families and helping to battle food insecurity. This new $10,000 donation will provide up to 20,000 nutritious meals for families like Diana’s:

    “Diana and her husband are raising their family of five, including Kaylee (14), Keyla (7) and Kendra (2), in their one-bedroom apartment in San Jose, where they have lived for the past 10 years. When shelter-in-place orders went into effect, Diana’s husband was out of work for four months and they were unable to pay their rent. Diana began visiting a Second Harvest walk-up free grocery distribution in San Jose at the beginning of 2022 when saving money became impossible. Her husband brings home less money as a roofing contractor in the winter months due to rain, so the family also relies on CalFresh benefits and Diana’s part-time job to help them get by. Diana is grateful that her family is healthy and that they can share a home-cooked meal together.”

    The COVID-19 pandemic, shelter in place orders, and rising inflation has pushed many families deeper into poverty and caused others to seek food assistance for the very first time. The continued support of the local community is critical to the success of Second Harvest’s food programs due to the fact that they anticipate the elevated and significant need for food assistance to stay steady for years to come.
