SUPCO Company Profile

SUPCO®’s roots started as a service company in 1945 in 1965 1945 New York when we discovered how to non-invasively repair a “sealed unit” compressor. When the internal components Invents Bullet® Began of the compressors required repair, our engineers developed Line Tap Valve manufacturing thepartstogetthemupandrunningagain. Wequicklycameto parts to rebuild the realization that there was a significant need in the market 1972 compressors for innovative HVACR and Appliance replacement parts. After moving manufacturing facilities to New Jersey in the Develops PTC 1970 1960s, SUPCO® engineers developed the patented Bullet® 2-wire Hard Start Line Tap valve. The early 1970s brought about the invention Develops PTC of PTC technology for domestic Appliance refrigeration and 1980 Technology for air conditioning. Further refinement during the decade led domestic Appliance to “The Original” two-wire air conditioning hard start and the Enters & A/C Applications “3’N-1®” refrigeration hard start which revolutionized the instrumentation aftermarket’s method for hard start installation. 1973 market Today, we maintain an in-house engineering team in New Develops 3’N-1® Jersey to ensure that SUPCO® products are produced to the 1990 Refrigeration highest standard by people who know our industry. After Hard Start decades of continued growth and expansion, we remain true Manufactures first to our roots of innovative manufacturing with a focus on the electronic vacuum 1983 future technologies and industry trends that will have an impact on our customers. gauge, VG60 Expands product offering with 2006 distribution relationships Acquires CTC® manufacturing 2000 2014 Expands Appliance parts manufacturing Expands A-1® to laundry, dishwasher access fitting and range manufacturing 2012 2018 Acquires Manufactures CAM-STAT® App-connected manufacturing vacuum gauge, 2015 VG640TL Acquires Jason® Industrial Appliance assets 2019 Acquires NAPCO®

GETTING QUALITY: TECHNICAL THE PROOF IS IN THE PROCESS. From our capacitors to our direct replacement appliance parts, we own the manufacturing process with 100% control. Whether we are manufacturing in our facilities in the United States or abroad, our sophisticated processes are designed to reduce defects and allow for the flexibility to design around complications. In addition to 100% capacitance testing, a portion of our capacitor production undergoes accelerated life conditions. Placed in ovens reaching over 85oC, voltage is continuously applied in a formula designed to simulate 60,000 or 100,000 hours of life. Final assembly is completed in a deep vacuum which eliminates all moisture. We use CNC machines to manufacture most of our A-1® Access Fittings. These sophisticated metal lathes form metal parts and cut threads out of solid rods. Computerization ensures that each and every part is cut to the same specification with the same pressure. Each and every OEM direct replacement and universal ice maker we manufacture is tested through a 24-hour cycle. Results are fed into computerized systems which are sensitive enough to detect and alert for marginal performance against the documented specifications, fit and function.

Our in-house engineering team ensures components, tools, test instruments and unique universal parts are developed to the highest standards. Conceptualization often begins on our 3D printers. Initial Quality Control inspections of raw materials and components ensures tolerance at the pre-assembly level. This helps mitigate post-manufacturing problems. Controlled manufacturing begins with clean, bright work spaces. Sophisticated equipment allows for precision manufacturing of complex components to meet or exceed industry standards. Each and every part produced is quality tested using unique tests that replicate the performance and operation standards it will be exposed to in the field. Our computerized systems indicate parts that do not pass or those require further testing.

EXCLUSIVEMANUFACTURING Strategic growth led to our acquisition of the end-to-end manufacturing rights of long-standing brands in the HVACR industry, such as our line of A-1® access fittings and service valves. We are also the only industry manufacturer of the complete line of CAM-STAT® OEM heating fan and limit controls, which we make in our Allenwood, New Jersey facility using proprietary equipment. Our technician-focused line of innovative tools are one-of a kind, resourceful solutions that make life in the HVAC field easier. These unique tools have been designed by real technicians who’ve used their resourcefulness in the field to solve common problems and approached Supco to help bring their inventions to life through engineering, manufacturing and distribution. Some of our notable TradeFox™ Tools include the Jones® Valve Condensate Cleanout, the Magnecover™ Magnetic Umbrella and the Attic Pro® Utility Lift. OUR BRAND PROMISE When our customers see the Supco® brand, they can expect high-quality, innovative manufacturing at value-driven prices. Central to our promise is our commitment to stay true to our values of integrity, dependability and partnership when it comes to how we do business with our customers.
