Crimp Circuits

What Crimp Circuits does

Crimp Circuits Canada Inc. is a privately held, family-owned printed circuit board manufacturer founded in 1980 and headquartered in a 45,000 square foot facility in Toronto, Ontario. The company manufactures rigid, flexible, metal-clad, metal-core, rigid-flex, and multi-layer printed circuit boards up to 30 layers, with value-added capabilities including controlled impedance, back drilling, and a full inspection stack (AOI, CMM, X-ray, microsection, flying probe). Its core customer base spans electronics manufacturers across industrial equipment, medical devices, LED lighting, and consumer electronics, with a particular positioning around North American quick-turn prototyping and the avoidance of Asia sourcing risk.

The business model is project-based, transactional B2B manufacturing with custom quoting rather than disclosed list pricing. Revenue streams include quick-turn prototyping (next business day for 2-layer boards, 2 days for multi-layer), small-to-high volume production, electronic assembly services, and a hybrid offshore manufacturing option that combines Asian production with North American QC and program management. Distribution is direct: field sales for Canada from the Toronto headquarters plus a US sales office in Williamsburg, MI, supported by an online quote request system and active content marketing. Certifications include ISO 9001:2015, UL/CSA registration, and IPC membership.

The company is a privately held, family-managed entity with no disclosed parent, no funding rounds, no M&A activity, and no publicly disclosed revenue or headcount. Strategic emphasis is on quality, regulatory credentials, proximity-based delivery, and breadth of PCB technology rather than scale or software differentiation.

Emerging players

• PCBWay: China-based low-cost PCB prototyping and small-volume fab with global online ordering; competing against Crimp's quick-turn services on price, particularly for prototype-stage customers.

Broad incumbents

• Celestica Inc. Canadian-headquartered EMS provider with PCB assembly and limited in-house fabrication; geographic and segment overlap with Crimp as Toronto-area electronics manufacturers serving North American OEMs.
• Sanmina Corporation: Global Tier-1 EMS provider with significant in-house PCB fabrication alongside full assembly; broader portfolio and much larger scale, but overlapping in PCB and electronic assembly services offered to industrial/medical customers.
• Multek (part of Flexium): Global rigid, flex, and rigid-flex PCB manufacturer with high-volume capabilities; competes in multi-layer and HDI segments that overlap with Crimp's specialty work.

Direct peers

• TTM Technologies: One of the world's largest PCB manufacturers with significant North American rigid, flex, and rigid-flex production for aerospace, defense, automotive, and medical — directly comparable technology stack and customer verticals, but at far greater scale.
• Sierra Circuits: California-based quick-turn PCB prototyping specialist with focus on high-density and high-layer-count boards; overlaps with Crimp's quick-turn prototype offering for North American engineers.
• APCT (Advanced Printed Circuits Technology): North American PCB fabricator offering rigid, flex, rigid-flex, and HDI boards with quick-turn capabilities; similar mid-tier positioning serving aerospace, medical, and industrial customers.
• Epec Engineered Technologies: US PCB/PCBA manufacturer offering custom rigid, flex, and rigid-flex boards with quick-turn and turnkey services — competing in the same North American mid-market PCB space as Crimp.
• ALL Flex Solutions: Specialist in flexible and rigid-flex PCB manufacturing in North America; direct overlap on flex capability and medical/industrial customer base.
• Advanced Circuits: US-based quick-turn and prototype PCB manufacturer known for short-lead-time rigid and multi-layer boards; competes head-to-head with Crimp in the North American quick-turn small-to-medium volume segment.
