Graphic, the Devon-based PCB manufacturer has seen a 15% increase in sales revenues in the last business quarter.

In the UK, 70% of Graphic’s turnover is military and aerospace and the rest is for specialist applications such as formula one motor-racing, medical and marine products.

The company said it benefitted from its decision to set up a production operation in China in 2008.

“Production in China commenced in 2008 at the height of the worst recession in known times but has progressively gathered momentum and is now showing exceptional growth,” said the company.

Graphic has a joint venture, called Somacis Graphic, in Dongguan, China where 60% of its PCB’s are shipped within China and the other 40% exported.

In the last quarter turnover was up by 15.6% compared to the previous year.
