ASC Sunstone Expands Online Quoting to Streamline Flex PCB Procurement
February 17, 2026 | ASC Sunstone CircuitsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
As demand for compact, lightweight, and high-reliability electronic designs continues to grow, ASC Sunstone is making it easier for engineers to source flex circuitry with Instant Online Quoting for select Flex PCB configurations through its OneQuote® platform at sunstone.com.
Building on their widely used rigid PCB quoting system, ASC Sunstone’s enhanced OneQuote platform now supports instant pricing for select single-sided and double-sided flex circuits, including optional stiffeners and coverlayer materials. The expansion reflects increasing customer demand for faster design-to-order workflows in applications where flex technology plays a critical role.
For more advanced or complex flex designs, OneQuote also provides a streamlined RFQ submission process, enabling engineers to quickly transition from standard configurations to fully customized solutions without disrupting project timelines.
Anaya Vardya, CEO of American Standard Circuits and ASC Sunstone Circuits, commented: “We’ve always believed that ease of doing business matters. Online quoting transformed the rigid PCB experience for many of our customers and extending that convenience to flex designs was a natural next step. Flex circuits bring unique variables and complexities, so building an intuitive system required thoughtful development. We’re proud to offer a solution that provides both instant pricing for standard builds and a seamless pathway for more advanced flex requirements.”
The OneQuote platform integrates directly into the ordering process, reducing friction between pricing and purchasing while preserving full access to ASC Sunstone’s technical support team. By combining automation with expert engineering resources, ASC Sunstone continues to simplify PCB procurement without compromising design flexibility or performance expectations.
