Essex Industries
Founded in 1947 by Harold and Sidney Guller in their father’s basement, Essex Industries has grown to five facilities, with over 260,000 square feet of manufacturing space and over 350 employees in its St. Louis, MO, Huntington Beach, CA, and Milford CT facilities.
The Gullers’ first product, an F-214 Radio Noise Filter, was designed to meet a specific requirement for that aircraft. Over the past seven decades, the product range has grown to include a variety of Platform Controls and Aircraft Components. As a result, Essex Industries has been a part of virtually every major military and commercial aerospace program since 1947.
Today, Essex is recognized for its core product segments of Platform Controls, Aircraft Components, Emergency Breathing Equipment, and LOX Equipment.
The company has built on the company’s rich history, establishing a reputation for providing engineered solutions to customers’ problems. With exacting quality standards and manufacturing expertise.
