Company Profile
Vermason is a manufacturer of ESD protection products and was founded in Letchworth
in 1979. In April 2007 Desco Industries, Inc. of Chino California acquired 100%
of the shares of Vermason Ltd. Vermason is now a division of Desco Industries, Inc.
Over half the workforce of thirty is engaged
in producing a wide range of ESD products.The injection moulding presses and the
bag making machines occupy a substantial part of the 2000 square metre factory.
A computer-controlled mat cutting machine is large too: it can cut mats and boards
up to 12m long and 2m wide. A row of sewing machines help us make heelgrounders,
field service kits and other sewn items. The far end of the hall is home to several
light assembly processes such as crimpers, insert moulding machines, riveting presses
and ultrasonic welders. They are used to make wristbands, coiled cords, and earth
bonding points amongst others. In an especially made ESD protected area, test and
monitor products such as resistance indicators, wrist strap testers and constant
monitors are assembled and calibrated traceable to National Standards.
Vermason prides itself in its practical knowledge of ESD and its ability to develop new products.
