Electri-Flex Celebrates 50 Years of Excellence in the
Flexible Electrical Conduit Industry
Electri-Flex Company announces its 50th Anniversary in the flexible
electrical conduit industry. As a family-owned business, Electri-Flex takes
particular pride in the relationships they have established throughout the years
with their customers, distributors, suppliers, associates and employees, The
Company constantly strives to contribute to the industry whenever possible, and
is proud to celebrate this milestone of service.
Founders Harold Kinander, Sr. and Jim Doolin Established Electri-Flex in 1955.
They built the company on a partnership philosophy, which was best stated by H.W.
“West” Kinander, Jr., former president and co-owner, shortly before his untimely
death in 1991. “Quality, service and loyalty to one’s business partners have
been the theme since our company began. Those standards will continue to be the
benchmark by which our company will be judged. You have my word.”
Building on their tradition of excellence, Electri-Flex recently expanded its
facilities with a state-of-the-art 64,000 square foot building designed to
handle both distribution and warehousing. The new building, seen as a
significant symbol of the company’s history, success and future, will give
Electri-Flex the opportunity to stage more products during any given day –
increasing the efficiency and turn-around time for its customers. In addition to
the capacity and functionality of the building, the construction will allow for
a more focused manufacturing process in the existing building. This streamlining
effect will have an impact at all levels of the business and with customer
satisfaction.
Electri-Flex has earned a global reputation for manufacturing innovation and
product quality with their Liquatite® conduit line. As the most
diverse line of conduit on the market, the Liquatite® brand is
synonymous with the Electri-Flex name. “The Liquatite product line is the
manifestation of a customer-focused philosophy—a philosophy of loyalty, respect
and fairness,” states Bruce Kinander, chairman of the board. “This philosophy
allows us to focus on our customers’ true needs, rather than on our
short-term production goals.”
Electri-Flex’s Liquatite® conduit line includes more than 31 types of
flexible electrical conduit for contractors, OEMs, industrial maintenance and
repair (MRO), government, utility and export users. Most conduits are available
as standard products, and Electri-Flex has the manufacturing capability to
develop specialized products as they are needed by customers. An innovator in
the liquidtight conduit industry, Electri-Flex is also a leader in packaging
improvements and manufacturing patents. The majority of production tools and
methods used are unique in that they are developed and built by Electri-Flex in
its own facility.
Electri-Flex Company, a leader in electrical conduit design and manufacture for
more than 50 years, produces Liquatite, the most diverse line of liquidtight
flexible electrical conduit in the industry. The company offers custom design,
engineering, quality assurance and testing capabilities. For more information on
