EECO
EECO was founded in 1947 as California Electronic Engineering Company, one of the earliest electronics manufacturing companies to settle in Orange County, California. EECO has been an innovator and pioneer in industries as diverse as videotape editing equipment, aircraft passenger entertainment systems and computer systems for the hotel industry. As a leader in binary coded switches, EECO has developed a wide variety of thumbwheel switches and introduced the STRIPSWITCH® and Micro-DIP® printed circuit board mount coded switches. EECO is also one of the oldest membrane switch manufacturers with over 30 years of experience. In 1993, Transico, Inc. acquired the EECO switch division. In 2003, the company moved to a dedicated facility in Brea, California, which serves as the corporate headquarters and manufacturing location for membrane and custom mechanical switch production. EECO also has manufacturing facilities in Mexico, Taiwan and China, and a sales office in Cambridge, England.
