AEROSPACE
Exception PCB manufactures PCBs for civil and defence aerospace programmes, supporting avionics, flight management electronics, propulsion systems, and RF sensing platforms. AS9100 and ISO 9001 certification, full material traceability, and controlled processes support the qualification consistency and long-programme reliability that aerospace applications demand.
AUTOMOTIVE & TRANSPORT
Exception PCB manufactures PCBs for EV development, battery management systems, ADAS electronics, commercial vehicles, and high-performance transport platforms requiring traceable builds, IPC Class 2 and Class 3 workmanship, and a UK supply chain where responsiveness and engineering access matter throughout development.
COMMUNICATIONS & NETWORKS
Exception PCB manufactures PCBs for 5G infrastructure, RF front-end and antenna systems, IoT and smart infrastructure platforms, and high-speed network transport electronics where controlled impedance, low-loss materials, and tight manufacturing tolerances directly influence signal performance.
DEFENCE
Exception PCB manufactures PCBs for secure communications, ruggedised electronics, surveillance systems, and mission-critical defence platforms where supply-chain integrity, traceability, and long-term process stability are non-negotiable. AS9100-certified UK manufacture provides the sovereign supply assurance that defence procurement increasingly requires.
ENERGY & INDUSTRIAL
Exception PCB manufactures PCBs for renewable energy systems, grid infrastructure, industrial automation, robotics, power electronics, and downhole or harsh-environment applications where long operational lifetimes, thermal resilience, and consistent manufacturing quality are essential. ISO 9001 quality management and full traceability support both regulated infrastructure and technically demanding industrial programmes.
MEDICAL
Exception PCB manufactures PCBs for medical devices, diagnostic equipment, imaging systems, patient monitoring platforms, and life-science instrumentation where IPC Class 2 and Class 3 workmanship, traceable builds, and manufacturing discipline aligned to regulated environments are essential. We hold NHS supply experience and support medical engineering teams from prototype through to production.
MOTORSPORT
Exception PCB manufactures high-technology PCBs for elite motorsport programmes, including Formula 1 supply chains, supporting powertrain, data acquisition, vehicle control, and trackside electronics. Fast-turn capability, engineering-led prototyping, and strict programme confidentiality support development cycles where timelines are compressed and performance margins are critical.
SPACE
Exception PCB manufactures PCBs for satellite payloads, ground-segment electronics, launch vehicle systems, and space-grade RF and power applications where performance under extreme environments and long operational lifetimes are essential. Our manufacturing discipline, traceability, and engineering oversight support the exacting qualification requirements of space programmes.
