Our History
The Amphenol Corporation has been the interconnect technology provider of choice to industry leading companies throughout the world since 1932. Operations in the UK began in 1957 with the first facilities established in Burgess Hill, Sussex.
The acquisition of Pyle-National in Nottingham brought an additional 14,000 square feet of manufacturing to Amphenol UK, specialising in the design and manufacture of Aero-Engine and Industrial interconnect products.
Today, all manufacturing operations are consolidated into one site at Whitstable covering 130,000 square feet. This is further supported by the global network of manufacturing sites across Amphenol which provides a broad product range as well as access to low cost country economies for component manufacturing as appropriate.
