ALL Circuits, DBG Technology Strategic Alliance Delivers Optimal Global Footprint
December 17, 2024 | ALL CircuitsEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
With DBG Technology, the 16th largest EMS globally, poised to acquire ALL Circuits, the largest EMS in France, they will create a global footprint that truly reflects the needs of OEMs in a geopolitically challenged world.
ALL Circuits is delighted to announce this strategic partnership that not just adds China to their manufacturing footprint, but also India and Vietnam, two countries, which alongside Mexico are seen as winners in the move to reduce dependency on China as the factory of the world. Coincidentally DBG Technology, who also have a facility in Bangladesh, will gain additional capacity in France, Tunisia and Mexico.
As ALL Circuits Group’s President, Bruno Racault, explains, “we’re excited to have manufacturing in China for our customers that are selling products in China, as well as having a solid footprint elsewhere in Asia where demand is strong. This along with our own sites in Europe, North Africa and North America will deliver outstanding global manufacturing choices to our current and future customers.”
The discussions, conducted within a constructive framework, could result in the signing of a final agreement in spring 2025. This strategic collaboration would represent a pivotal step in the long-term development of both industrial groups, consolidating their respective market positions while leveraging the industrial and technological synergies of the two entities.
Impressive Global Scale, Capability and Capacity
With a combined production capacity of more than 150 SMT (Surface Mount Technology) lines, design offices, and complementary sector specializations (primarily in Telecommunications for DBG Technology and in Automotive for ALL Circuits), this alliance would enable the development of new markets, while adding substantial value to existing markets.
A Promising Future for ALL Circuits
The structure of this integration ensures that ALL Circuits and its current management retain operational control of France’s EMS leader, which will continue to operate independently under its current name, preserving and enhancing the strong identity of the company, which has been based in Meung-sur-Loire, Loiret, for more than thirty years.
A Shared Vision for Electronics Manufacturing
This transaction aligns with a shared vision of growth and innovation, enhancing relationships with shared customers while accelerating the penetration of new strategic markets.
In conclusion, Bruno Racault explains, "This proposed partnership represents a major milestone in our company’s history, offering solutions across international markets to produce closer to our clients’ needs while maintaining and strengthening our position in Europe. It will enhance our ability to innovate and serve our customers with the same level of excellence and commitment in an ever-evolving global context. ALL Circuits would like to express its gratitude to IEE S.A. and its shareholder for their strategic cooperation over the past 10 years, which has significantly contributed to the company's rapid growth. ALL Circuits will continue to serve IEE S.A. as one of its key customers in the global electronics manufacturing sector."
Testimonial
"The I-Connect007 team is outstanding—kind, responsive, and a true marketing partner. Their design team created fresh, eye-catching ads, and their editorial support polished our content to let our brand shine. Thank you all! "

Study on Resonance Mitigation in Metallic Shielding for Integrated Circuits
07/08/2025 | Maria Cuesta-Martin, Victor Martinez, Vidal Gonzalez Aguado, Würth ElektronikInherent cavity resonant modes often lead to significant degradation of shielding effectiveness, responsible for unwanted electromagnetic coupling. Cavity resonant modes of the metal shielding enclosure can produce two adverse problems: the mutual coupling among different RF modules and shielding effectiveness reduction of the metal enclosure. The cabinets serve to shield certain components from electromagnetic interference (EMI). However, these cavities present some resonance peaks at 5 GHz, making it impossible to use them at higher frequencies.
