Company Description

APCT, ACI, and San Diego PCB Design have rebranded to AdvancedPCB. Though our name has changed, our commitment to our customers will not. With this latest acquisition, AdvancedPCB will evolve into the most comprehensive provider of PCBs in the country. As the result of a fusion of capabilities and opportunities, we will offer a competitive product for applications both large and small, and every interaction will be infused with our core belief that customer centricity is key.

The PCB and Chip industries are vitally important to the United States. A large percentage of semiconductor production happens offshore, which challenges our strategic capabilities as a nation. It’s imperative that the industry shift power and production back onshore, but smaller organizations have been struggling to keep up with technology – and cost – which ultimately led to the consolidation of numerous organizations.

With over 40 years of industry experience, AdvancedPCB is poised to lead the industry with a high-level focus on customer centricity and the unique ability to meet the demands of any PCB need, be it simple or highly complex. However, the need for greater domestic manufacturing and associated investment in this sector is a problem we all share and must band together to address. This rebrand will provide a window of opportunity for us to broaden the conversation and awareness of the important place we hold across industries and is a chance for us to work together to boldly redefine technology and drive our nation - and the global community - towards a brighter, more sustainable and interconnected world.

Today, more than 40 years after its founding, AdvancedPCB is the nation’s leader in printed circuit board solutions, offering full-scale design, fabrication, and assembly in-house consistently faster than the industry standard. We take pride in offering full-service solutions that meet the unique demands of any PCB customer need, while providing best-in-class customer service at every touchpoint.
