ETCO Incorporated was founded in 1947 as Electric Terminal Corporation. The original company produced wall plug blades in strip form for attachment by the customer on a patented air operated machine. ETCO, which recently celebrated its 64th anniversary, still produces wall plug blades to this day.
As the years went on the company expanded the product line into thousands of different products, both stock and custom designed proprietary products tooled for our customer's individual needs. Our proprietary products currently represent approximately half of ETCO's sales.
The company now has two divisions plus a separate R&D facility. One division provides electronic connectors to a wide variety of industries while the other division serves the automotive industry and its unique needs.
At ETCO we believe that old values and customer service should still be the rule. We won't take an order unless we can guarantee on time delivery and exact conformance to our customers requirements. We are accessible and are totally dedicated to customer satisfaction.
