Würth Elektronik and Starteam Global team up on PCB sourcing
Würth Elektronik and German PCB manufacturer Starteam Global are expanding their cooperation into a strategic partnership. The first step is a joint online PCB shop, and customers will also get access to the two companies’ combined manufacturing networks in Europe and Asia.
In the online shop, customers can specify their PCBs, calculate a price and submit a request for quotation in three steps, according to a press release from the two companies. The partnership is meant to go further than that, giving customers a choice of manufacturing options from prototypes to volume production, depending on technology, volume and delivery requirements.
“By connecting our expertise and manufacturing networks, we want to give customers greater flexibility in finding the right solution for their PCB requirements,” says Daniel Klein, Managing Director of Würth Elektronik GmbH & Co. KG.
The two companies have worked together before. In 2025, Starteam Global joined Würth Elektronik and Peters Group in the s.mask technical roadshow on additive solder mask technology. The new partnership turns that technical cooperation into a commercial one.
Würth Elektronik Circuit Board Technology produces PCBs at its sites in Germany and through qualified partners in Asia. Starteam Global was founded in Germany and has production at Flero Starteam in Italy, which focuses on prototypes and high-mix, low-volume manufacturing, as well as at Jiangyou Starteam in China and Prachinburi Starteam in Thailand for volume production.
