Exception PCB Brought Back into British Ownership
Wright Industries has acquired Exception PCB, returning the Tewkesbury-based PCB manufacturer to UK ownership as part of the Connexion Technologies group, strengthening national manufacturing resilience.
Wright Industries today announced it has acquired Exception PCB Ltd, returning the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) manufacturer to UK ownership.
Exception PCB will join Wright Industries’ other investments, as part of the Connexion Technologies group.
This strategic acquisition underscores both companies shared commitment to building the most advanced manufacturing capability in the UK and supporting the UK Government’s drive to secure critical industrial infrastructure.
"The business has undergone significant recent investment in its processing technology to place it at the forefront of PCB manufacturing globally and we are proud to support its continued growth," Craig Wright concluded.
This acquisition comes at a time when national focus is returning to domestic capability in manufacturing, especially across sectors such as defence, aerospace, energy, and critical infrastructure.
By uniting under UK ownership, Connexion Technologies and Exception PCB will strengthen British industry, protect key supply chains, and support skilled jobs across the UK.
