ANDOVER, ENGLAND – Wright Industries has announced its acquisition of Exception PCB Ltd, returning the high-reliability printed circuit board manufacturer to British ownership. The company, now part of the Connexion Technologies group, means to reinforce the UK’s domestic manufacturing base.

“Bringing Exception PCB back from Asia into UK ownership strengthens our national manufacturing resilience,” said Craig Wright, chairman and CEO of Connexion Technologies. “It aligns with UK Government objectives and opens new opportunities to innovate, invest and lead.”

“This is a proud moment for British engineering,” added Kamal Berberi, general manager of Exception PCB. “Joining Connexion Technologies will allow us to expand our strategic capabilities and customer offerings.”

Wright Industries’ move highlights a broader trend toward reshoring industrial capacity to the UK. The deal is also expected to support skilled jobs and long-term economic value in the region.
