Company Profile
|
55 years ago John A. McDonald of Glendale, CA developed a multiple-purpose continuity and voltage tester for electrical circuits. A patent was applied for in 1952 and granted in 1956. He and a partner formed the Delta Electrical Specialty Company (DESCO) to manufacture and sell the device named the Circuitracer, which we still manufacture.
In 1979 John McDonald sold his company and retired. We incorporated under the name Desco Industries, Inc. in Brea, CA. We quickly outgrew the Brea facility and moved to Walnut, CA in 1981. We moved again in 1999 to a much larger building in Chino, CA. Our corporate headquarters is also located in Chino. After 28 years we now operate manufacturing facilities in seven locations in the United States and two in the United Kingdom. With sales worldwide we hold over 40 patents.
During our 28 years we have grown through the development of new products and the acquisition of companies with well established reputations for quality. Our primary focus in on the control of electrostatic discharge damage in micro circuits, but we manufacture many products involved in the manufacture, testing and repair of electronic circuits. We are proud that the following brands are now part of the Desco Industries family:
