Funding boost for pcb specialist

UK start up Pure Electronics has secured funding from specialist technology investment group Wright Industries, to support increased demand for its pcb and electronic technology supply solutions.

"Since its inception almost 12 months ago, Pure has developed a reputation as one of the UK's fast growing electronics supply chain businesses, with its global supply chain operations recently being instrumental in gaining further significant contracts in the secure communications sectors," said Craig Wright, chairman of Wright Industries. "We believe there are significant opportunities within the pcb market from which Pure is set to support existing and new customers." Elsewhere in the pcb space, the board and shareholders of Exception Group have accepted an offer from Hong Kong based firm Fastprint to acquire 100% of its pcb solutions division. The move, according to Fastprint, will help it establish a stronger base in Europe for both manufacturing and trading.
