Telcon International, originally known as the Gutta Percha Company, has a long history dating back to its establishment on 7th April 1864.
The company was formed through a merger with Glass Elliot, resulting in the creation of the Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company (Telcon). This strategic merger enabled the company to become a pioneer in the telecommunications industry, helping to establish the first communication links between the UK and the USA. Over the next fifty years, Telcon extended its reach by laying undersea cables across most of the world’s major oceans and seas, solidifying its status as a global leader.
As is common with many businesses, Telcon has evolved significantly over the past 160 years, with shifts in ownership, product offerings, and services. Today, the company focuses its expertise on soft magnetic cores and components, including advanced Hall Effect sensors, both open and closed loop, serving industries that require precise electronic components.
Headquartered near Gatwick International Airport, the UK’s second-largest airport, Telcon’s UK manufacturing facility benefits from the strategic location, allowing for efficient global distribution and supply of power products. Situated at the heart of the UK’s electronics industry, which is known for its innovative spirit and emerging technologies, Telcon continues to offer leading-edge solutions and unparalleled expertise across a wide array of industries and applications.
