What Corintech does

Corintech Limited is a UK-based electronics design and manufacturing services (EDMS) company headquartered in Fordingbridge, Hampshire. Founded in 1977 to specialise in Thick Film Hybrid microcircuits, the company has expanded over more than 40 years into a full-service provider covering electronic design, firmware and software development, PCB layout, prototyping, PCB assembly, box build, wire bonding, laser trimming, and conformal coating and encapsulation. Manufacturing is delivered through a dual footprint comprising the Fordingbridge production centre (a new facility opened in 2015) and Far East partners coordinated via a 15,000 sqft Hong Kong warehouse operated alongside sister company Lascar Electronics.

The company sells both custom engineering services and a small proprietary product portfolio. The latter centres on the FilesThruTheAir sub-brand (wireless environmental monitoring loggers with WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC connectivity and cloud-hosted apps) and the PanelPilot configurable display platform, acquired in 2019. Quality credentials include ISO 9001 (with UKAS accreditation), AS9100 for aerospace, IPC-A-610 Class 3 and J-STD-001 for assembly, Cyber Essentials, and an EcoVadis Bronze Medal for 2026 (69/100). Corintech is privately held and operates as a subsidiary of ICM Holdco III Corp. (d/b/a CIMSENSE).

Corintech targets OEMs and technology companies across aerospace and defence, industrial IoT, medical devices, and marine sectors (e.g., Cygnus Instruments). Revenue is generated through project-based quoting for design and EMS engagements, component sourcing mark-up, and hardware sales of FilesThruTheAir products, with quotations valid for 30 days and typical engagements structured as multi-year supply contracts. Distribution is entirely direct B2B via enterprise sales engineers and trade show channels such as Subcon and Southern Manufacturing, with no retail or self-serve motion.
