About The Company
Keytronic is a value-added contract manufacturer to some of the world’s leading OEMs. We specialize in PCB assembly, plastic molding, and full product assembly, with products ranging from simple consumer devices to complex, high end commercial and industrial electromechanical products.
KeyTronicEMS is one of very few contract manufacturers in the $100 to $500 million dollar annual revenue range with primary manufacturing locations in both Mexico and China. There are even less companies this size that can match KeyTronicEMS’s combination of off-shore world class PCB assembly, plastic molding, and final product assembly all under the same roof.
Our size allows us to focus on accounts with low to medium volumes and higher flexibility requirements, yet still provide the cost benefits of several off-shore locations normally associated only with much larger contract manufacturers. This focus allows us to provide an unparalleled level of customer service and price on midsize programs.
Our unique blend of high caliber design; engineering and manufacturing services; flexibility and responsiveness to customer needs; and ability to provide a full range of product testing services have uniquely positioned KeyTronicEMS in the highly-competitive global contract manufacturing marketplace.
KeyTronicEMS specializes in design for manufacturability – improving product designs without sacrificing quality, to lower final product costs.
