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.
