BOCA RATON, FL – Myotek has acquired Amptech for an undisclosed sum. Amptech is a contract electronics assembler serving the automotive, utility and other industrial end-markets and applications.

The acquisition will allow Myotek to provide its customers with domestic production capabilities for its automotive lighting products. Plans are to expand existing Amptech manufacturing facilities in Michigan and Pennsylvania to accommodate customer demand. Amptech's Lee Wyatt will continue to serve as president.

Myotek is a transportation LED lighting designer, manufacturer and supplier specializing in automotive-forward lighting. In an email to CIRCUITS ASSEMBLY, Myotek CEO Eric Showalter, called the acquisition of Amptech "a strategic move by Myotek." He added that Amptech would continue to support its existing customers.

"We intend to continue to fully support the current Amptech customers and hope to continue to grow our contract manufacturing business. Myotek will be an additional customer of Amptech going forward. The business continue to be run by the previous owner and management team, and we see no changes with how we run the business."

"We are excited our partnership with New Water and Myotek will enable Amptech to grow, both in its historic core business segments, as well as more deeply penetrate the automotive lighting end market," said Wyatt.

"Building out US manufacturing will allow us to more efficiently support Myotek's growth and our customers over the coming years," Showalter added. "We are excited about the prospects of building our products right here in Michigan."
