Compar Corporation
Compar Corporation was established in 1976 and began shipping
its first interconnect products in 1977 under a licensing
agreement with a U.S. corporation to produce Card-Edge
connectors. By 1979, Compar had become independent of its U.S.
partner and in 1981 expanded its product line and entered the D-
Subminiature connector market. In 1991 Compar ventured into
specialized contract manufacturing activities as a result of the
companys manufacturing capabilities.
Today, Compar has expanded it products/services offering with an
emphasis on integrated display/touchscreen products, battery
products and custom cable assemblies, in addition to its
original interconnect products.
Compar is headquartered in Markham, Ontario, Canada. This
location houses the companys executive and administrative
offices in addition to its manufacturing plant.
The manufacturing operation has a dedicated production group
focusing on integrated display/touchscreen products, and
production areas for assembly of interconnect products and
battery packs. A stocking area holds raw material and finished
goods inventory.
In addition, the plant has a variety of semi-automated equipment
and a machine shop, which allows for easy tooling
modifications. This allows Compar to offer wide manufacturing
flexibility not found in most mass production operations and
lends itself to the type of customized solutions the company
promotes to its customers. Customers benefit from faster
turnaround times and reduced tooling costs.
Compar is backed by a management team of industry veterans with
decades of experience in integrated display products/touchscreen
manufacturing and associated market segments, value added
manufacturing and electronic components distribution as well as
the electronic OEM market segment.
Our team of highly qualified people in Sales & Marketing,
Operations/Manufacturing and Administration are well aware of
our quality mandate and reputation. They understand the
importance of attention to detail and are aware of the sense
of urgency that our customers demand and deserve.
Compars reputation of continually striving for the highest
possible quality is unsurpassed. Our ability to turn an order
quickly, even if custom in nature, separates us from many of our
competitors and allows our organization to differentiate and
focus on our niche.
Through our Sales Team, customers throughout North America and
Europe have been pleased with the quality products and support
Compar provides.
The company prides itself on the uncompromised integrity by
which it operates both within the organization as well as with
customers and suppliers.
