Andus Electronic

What Andus Electronic does

Andus Electronic GmbH is a privately-held German printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturer headquartered in Berlin-Kreuzberg, operating continuously from the same location for over 50 years since founding in 1969/1970. The company produces a broad portfolio of PCBs — including multilayer, rigid-flex (Starrflex), flexible, ultra-long flexible (Langflex up to 20 meters), high-frequency and impedance-controlled, power (thick copper, inlay, heatsink), and polyimide/polysiloxane heating foils — alongside in-house PCB layout services and full component assembly (SMD, THT, mixed). Its technology is differentiated by proprietary capabilities such as 20-meter seamless Langflex and superconducting PCB coatings for quantum-physics applications, validated by inclusion in interplanetary missions including NASA's InSight Mars lander (2018-2022) and the DLR/JAXA MASCOT asteroid lander on Ryugu. The company holds ISO 9001:2015 certification (TÜV Süd, valid through March 2028) and RoHS, REACH, SVHC, and PFAS compliance declarations.

The business operates a project-based, direct-sales model targeting mid-market to enterprise buyers in high-reliability verticals: aerospace and space technology, medical technology, research and academia (including Max Planck Institute and DLR), aviation (Airbus), and power/industrial electronics. Pricing is quote-based per project with no public tiers; customers engage via online inquiry, email ([email protected], [email protected]), or phone, supported by free online technical consultation and a regular webinar series led by Technology Manager Dr. Christoph Lehnberger. ANDUS serves more than 4,000 customers across 20+ countries with a single-facility model covering layout, manufacturing, and assembly. The company is led by Managing Director Christian Schild, with no disclosed parent company, institutional investor, or external funding. Revenue is not publicly disclosed.

Commercial reach is amplified through content-led channels — a bilingual website, INFORMANDUS newsletter, LinkedIn and Xing presence, and free technical webinars — alongside a recently announced collaboration with alpha-board to expand in-house PCB layout capacity. Customer logos span government research institutes, aerospace primes, medical centers, and international technology corporations, positioning ANDUS as a specialty Mittelstand manufacturer in niche, qualification-heavy PCB segments rather than a volume commodity player.

Revenue model

1. PCB Manufacturing (Leiterplattenherstellung): ANDUS manufactures a broad portfolio of PCBs including multilayer, rigid-flex, flexible, Langflex, HF/impedance, power, and heating foils at its Berlin facility. Revenue is generated through project-based manufacturing orders, from prototype to series production, priced per project based on specifications, materials, layer count, and volume.
2. PCB Assembly (Leiterplattenbestückung): ANDUS provides component assembly services for PCBs it manufactures and for externally sourced PCBs. Services include SMD, THT, and mixed assembly, component procurement, and electromechanical assembly. Revenue is per-assembly project, from single-unit prototypes to series runs.
3. PCB Layout Design Services: ANDUS offers in-house PCB layout design and routing from schematics, including reverse engineering and EDA tool conversions. Revenue is generated through consulting and design service fees, embedded in the overall project engagement.

Broad incumbents

• Unimicron Technology: Taiwan-based global PCB and IC-substrate manufacturer with high-end multilayer, HDI, rigid-flex, and flexible PCB capabilities. Competes with ANDUS in the global supply pool for high-density and specialty PCBs, particularly via European EMS and OEM channels.
• AT&S (Austria Technologie & Systemtechnik): Austrian-headquartered global PCB and substrate manufacturer serving mobile devices, automotive, industrial, and medical end markets. Overlaps with ANDUS in high-end multilayer and HDI/substrate PCB categories but operates at vastly greater scale, including IC-substrate and high-volume consumer production.
• TTM Technologies: US-headquartered global PCB manufacturer with broad aerospace & defense, automotive, computing, and networking exposure. Overlaps with ANDUS in high-reliability/A&D PCB categories (rigid, flex, rigid-flex, RF/microwave) but operates at dramatically larger scale.
• Shennan Circuits: Major Chinese PCB manufacturer serving communications equipment, automotive electronics, and aerospace customers. Represents the offshore cost-competitive supply option that European specialty players like ANDUS must differentiate against on lead time, agility, and certification.

Direct peers

• Schweizer Electronic: German PCB manufacturer specializing in high-end multilayer and rigid-flex PCBs for automotive, industrial, and aerospace customers. Closely comparable in product portfolio, geography, and customer-segment focus, though Schweizer operates at a larger scale than ANDUS.
• NCAB Group: Swedish-headquartered PCB sourcing and supply-chain specialist serving European industrial customers, with growing in-house design and EMS capabilities. Comparable in targeting European mid-market/enterprise customers needing multi-supplier PCB procurement and assemblies.
• Würth Elektronik: German PCB and electronic components manufacturer with a substantial printed-circuit-board division (including rigid, flex, rigid-flex, and HDI). Direct competitor in the European specialty/high-reliability PCB market, with overlapping customers in automotive, industrial, and aerospace applications.
• Mektec Europe (Mektron): European flex and rigid-flex PCB specialist (part of Japanese Mektec group) serving automotive, industrial, and medical customers. Directly comparable to ANDUS in the flex and rigid-flex PCB categories that are central to ANDUS's product portfolio.

Emerging players

• Cicor Technologies: Swiss-headquartered EMS and PCB manufacturer offering full-service electronic manufacturing from design through assembly, with aerospace/medical exposure. Comparable full-service value-chain model to ANDUS but with greater scale and broader M&A-driven growth.

Others

• Elekonta Marek: German PCB manufacturer focused on prototype and small-series production of multilayer and flex PCBs. Regional competitor sharing ANDUS's Mittelstand DNA and short-lead-time prototype value proposition for German customers.
