About Stantek Contract Manufacturing
Stantek Contract Manufacturing operates from Stanton, Kentucky, just outside Lexington. The company was founded in 2003, though the site had been a Sanmina-SCI contract manufacturing facility until production moved to Mexico that year. In 2017, the Stantek and Monticello teams combined to better support rapid-turnaround replacement parts for major customers' distribution centers. The business was acquired in July 2025 but remains privately held and continues full operations in Kentucky. Stantek produces wire harnesses, cable assemblies, control cables, electro-mechanical assemblies, and mechanical assemblies. In-house capabilities include high-volume wire processing (cutting, stripping, termination), laser/ink-jet/hot-stamp wire printing, machine braiding, ultrasonic welding (Branson and Techsonic systems), custom Cirris and electrical testing (Fluke instruments), hydraulic press work, machining, tooling and die maintenance, and inventory management. The facility spans 30,000 square feet of manufacturing and warehouse space with 50-plus personnel. The company specializes in low-to-mid-volume, short-run programs and rapid prototyping, with standard wire and connectors stocked for immediate production. Stantek serves aerospace, military, industrial, robotics, marine, medical, and automotive sectors. Military and aerospace customers include key tier-one government contractors and large commercial aviation OEMs. Industrial clients include major material-handling OEMs and fork-truck OEMs (as referenced in testimonials). Medical equipment manufacturers rely on Stantek for interconnect solutions. The company is ITAR registered (DDTC, Cage Code 14EW7) and manufactures to USML standards. Stantek emphasizes a 99.9% quality assurance rate under ISO 9001:2015, a 95%+ on-time in-full delivery rate, and over 100 years of combined team experience in harness and assembly manufacturing. The company positions itself on flexible, rapid-turnaround manufacturing without compromising quality, supported by in-house capabilities that enable quick response.
