Onshoring PCB Assembly to the USA: A Strategic Imperative in 2025

Why Onshoring Is Accelerating

Global turbulence in 2025—tariffs, port congestion, and compliance complexity—is driving U.S. companies to shift PCB assembly operations stateside.

Supporting Data:

• 25–30% tariffs on PCB imports from China

• Over 60% of OEMs considering U.S. assembly (IPS Assembly, 2025)

• Growing demand for IPC Class III standards in high-reliability industries

  
  

Strategic Benefits of Onshoring

The Hidden Costs of Offshore Manufacturing

Hidden costs add up fast:

• Rework from poor quality control

• Design delays due to time zone gaps

• Cybersecurity vulnerabilities with overseas vendors

CO-AX report: Firms saw an 18% reduction in TCO after switching to U.S. assembly.

How to Succeed in U.S. PCB Manufacturing

1. Partner with IPC-certified U.S. assemblers

2. Invest in workforce training and automation

3. Collaborate on design from prototyping to production

Final Thoughts

The reshoring movement is paving the future of U.S. innovation. Onshoring PCB assembly enhances supply chain control, quality assurance, and long-term profitability.
