We are the North American Distributors for Eurofarad of Paris France. Eurofarad has been the European leader in aerospace grade capacitors since the 1960s. With just under 1000 employees and under $100 million in annual sales Eurofarad is big enough to have all the necessary technical resources, but small enough to value every customer and every application without imposing minimum production quantities for customized products.

OBSOLESCENCE:

Obsolescence is a critical problem for many customers in aerospace and other low volume high tech industries.  Our customers do not face Obsolescence issues : Unlike other larger manufacturers Eurofarad will not just stop manufacturing a capacitor for economic or supply chain reasons. Eurofarad will always manufacture an equivalent tested product and we plan for supply chain interruptions. For example we have strategic reserves of discontinued policarbonate film to guarantee continued supply to our customers. For customers suffering from obsolescence of competitor's parts we will either offer functional replacements from other technologies or clone the discontinued parts.
