What H&T Global Circuits does

H&T Global Circuits (HTGlobalcircuits, LLC) is a privately held U.S.-based printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturer founded in 1990 and headquartered in St. Petersburg, Florida. The company designs, manufactures, and supplies bare PCBs across a comprehensive product portfolio spanning rigid, flex, rigid-flex, HDI, RF/microwave, metal core, aluminum, high-frequency, heavy copper (up to 16 oz), and microelectronics boards with up to 60 layers and trace widths down to 3 mil. Its customer base spans OEMs in aerospace and defense (ITAR-registered, AS9100-certified), automotive (IATF 16949), medical, industrial/power, networking and telecom, LED lighting, IoT, consumer electronics, and high-speed datacom.

The company operates a "Blended Factory Model" that pairs domestic U.S. manufacturing facilities — St. Petersburg, FL and Milwaukee, WI — for quick-turn prototyping and mission-critical production with cost-efficient offshore operations in China, Taiwan, and Thailand for high-volume runs. Engineering and sales support offices in Germany, Jordan, India, and Mexico extend commercial coverage across North America, EMEA, and Asia Pacific. Revenue is generated on a unit-pricing, quote-based model for PCB fabrication (10–10,000+ boards per run), with standard lead times of 10–15 business days and quick-turn delivery in 24–72 hours commanding premium pricing. GTM combines enterprise field sales with dedicated technical account managers, inside sales via a web-based instant quote portal, and content marketing through the company blog.

The company reports over 1 billion PCBs fabricated cumulatively, a >98% on-time-in-full delivery rate, and a base of 2,000+ customers globally. In 2017, H&T acquired Pho-Tronics to add metal core PCB (MCPCB) and thermal management capabilities. Recent leadership additions in 2025 — a new VP of Sales & Marketing, General Manager of the Wisconsin facility, and Director of Manufacturing — signal an active phase of operational scaling, though the company remains privately held with no disclosed external funding and no publicly reported revenue.
