ELCO International – A Pioneering Name in Electrical Technology and Engineering

History Behind ELCO International Corporation : ELCO International Corporation, now known as KYOCERA Connector Products, was founded in October 1964. Originally established overseas in Japan, it eventually expanded operations to Korea in 1987, followed by China, Singapore, and Hong Kong. In 1994, the company achieved ISO9002 certification. Shortly thereafter, the company achieved ISO 14001 certification in 2000. Acquisitions of OHSAS 18001 and ISO/TS 16949 certifications occurred in 2008 and 2011 as well, respectively. Most recently, in 2012, the company changed its name to KYOCERA Connector Products Corporation, the name in which we know of it today.

Kyocera conducts global business operations pertaining to a diverse range of products that include advanced materials, devices, components, network engineering, and other services. Their business segments include: fine ceramic components, semiconductor components, applied ceramic products, electronic devices, telecommunications equipment, document solutions, and R&D.
