SolderKing to reinforce UK manufacturing and supply reliability at Southern Manufacturing exhibition

With increased focus on supply chain resilience and consistent material performance across the electronics sector, UK-based solder consumables manufacturer SolderKing Assembly Materials will use its presence at Southern Manufacturing & Electronics 2026 (3-5 February, Farnborough International Exhibition and Conference Centre, Stand L90) to reinforce the importance of local production, proven formulations and dependable technical support.

At the show, SolderKing will highlight its UK-manufactured range of solder wire, solder paste and flux products, supported by a wider consumables’ portfolio developed to support stable, repeatable and compliant electronics assembly across industrial and OEM manufacturing environments. Rather than focus on individual product launches, the company’s presence will centre on the strength and consistency of its established range, alongside a service-led approach that supports customers before, during and after supply.

Chris Ward, Managing Director at SolderKing Assembly Materials, says: “Consistency is not just about formulation, it’s about control. By manufacturing all of our consumables here in the UK, we can manage raw material selection, batch verification and process parameters closely, while maintaining short lead times and secure supply.”

He adds: “We also carry out application testing that reflects real production conditions. Events such as Southern Manufacturing are important because they allow us to discuss those technical details directly with manufacturers and understand where process stability and supply confidence are most critical.”

Visitors to SolderKing’s stand at Southern Manufacturing & Electronics 2026 will be able to review the company’s full range of UK-manufactured soldering consumables and discuss material selection, process requirements and supply considerations with the team.
