About Cicor
Cicor is a development and manufacturing service provider for electronic systems operating throughout Europe. The Group manufactures printed circuit boards (PCB) and thin- and thick-film substrates, assembles PCBs using SMT and THT technology, produces microelectronic modules (Hybrid Circuits, Wire Bonding) and offers cable assembly, box building and complete system integration including housings and plastic components. The precision plastics division comprises injection moulding, toolmaking and painting; cleanroom production to ISO 14644 (classes 5–8) enables medical and pharmaceutical applications. Engineering Services cover product development, process engineering, test development and EMC testing. Key markets are medical technology (including implants, hearing aids, smart drug delivery), industrial applications as well as aerospace and defence. The headquarters are located in Bronschhofen (Switzerland); production sites exist in Switzerland, Germany, France, Romania, the United Kingdom, Sweden, Spain, Morocco, Asia and the USA.
