Built by operators who got tired of broken quote flows.
Nordic PCB was founded to fix how European engineering teams source printed circuit boards. We combine 25 years of electronics procurement with modern direct-to-consumer commerce thinking — so buying a PCB feels less like chasing emails and more like running a checkout.
Two backgrounds. One shared frustration.
Ulrik Maxen
Ulrik has spent the last 25 years sourcing IT hardware and electronic components across Europe. He has run procurement for everything from small hardware startups to large industrial buyers — negotiating with PCB fabricators, EMS facilities and component distributors in more than a dozen countries.
He builds the supplier side of Nordic PCB: who we onboard, how they are verified, and how every quote is structured so customers can actually compare them.
- Direct relationships with ISO-certified European fabricators and EMS
- Deep familiarity with IPC standards, RoHS/REACH and traceability requirements
- Leads supplier audits and annual re-verification
Mark Tomasi
Mark comes from the direct-to-consumer side of e-commerce — building and scaling online brands where checkout speed, transparent pricing and clean product data decide whether you win or lose the order.
He brings that same standard to industrial buying: clear specs, comparable quotes, and a buying flow that respects the engineer's time. If something on Nordic PCB feels unusually simple for a B2B platform, that is the point.
- Years of experience scaling DTC brands and digital storefronts
- Focus on conversion, clarity and zero-friction checkout
- Owns the customer-facing product and quote experience
Procurement should feel like a checkout, not a treasure hunt.
We kept seeing the same pattern. An engineer finishes a board, sends Gerber files to five suppliers, and a week later still has three quotes in different formats, two suppliers who never replied, and no DFM feedback worth acting on.
That is the problem Nordic PCB exists to solve. One upload. Verified European suppliers only. Three structured, comparable quotes within 72 hours. DFM review by certified suppliers included on every order. Full traceability from quote to delivery.
We invoice you directly and carry the commercial responsibility. You get one partner, one contract, and an audit trail you can actually hand to quality.
Four principles we don't compromise on.
Transparency over salesmanship
We publish what is included, what costs money, and who is making your boards. No hidden margins on certifications, no surprise NRE.
Verified suppliers only
ISO 9001 minimum, re-audited every year. We turn down more partners than we onboard.
Engineer-grade specifics
Layer counts, finishes, classes and tolerances — not buzzwords. If a number matters, we show it.
Commerce-grade experience
DTC speed and clarity applied to industrial buying. Fast quotes, clean comparisons, zero spreadsheet gymnastics.
Procurement depth meets commerce-grade UX.
From Ulrik's side
A curated network of European PCB fabricators, EMS facilities and authorised component distributors — every one of them ISO-certified, audited, and held to the same quote format.
From Mark's side
A buying flow that takes minutes, not afternoons. Upload once, compare quotes side by side, track production in a portal that actually loads on your phone.
