Magnetic Shield Corporation

Bensenville Illinois US 60106

About Seller: Established in 1941 under the name Perfection Mica Company, our primary focus was on the extraction and processing of Mica at a mine in North Carolina. Shortly after, we acquired ownership of the Buster mine in the Dakotas, which was recognized as the largest Mica mine globally during the 1940s. Additionally, we founded the Magnetic Shield Division, dedicated to creating materials and processes for controlling magnetic fields for NASA's space exploration initiatives. The success of the Magnetic Shield Division led to a significant shift in our business, prompting a name change to Magnetic Shield Corporation. Our expertise and contributions to the television and electronics industries facilitated a seamless transition. Key to our growth strategy were the sensitive electronic applications developed during WWII. By the mid-1950s, the demand for magnetic shields surpassed that of Mica, solidifying Magnetic Shield Corporation as the primary enterprise in 1956. We have since established ourselves as a leading industry player, introducing proprietary shielding alloys Co-NETIC(R) and NETIC(R) in 1955, followed by the launch of INTER-8(R) weaved cable. These products have set the standard for magnetic shielding alloys. Despite competition from other companies that emerged in the shielding market since the 1960s, many of which were founded by former employees, Magnetic Shield Corporation maintains a strong reputation rooted in decades of experience and innovation. Globally recognized brands like MuMETAL(R) are exclusively supplied by Magnetic Shield Corporation in the USA. For all your MuMETAL(R) needs, please contact Magnetic Shield Corporation.
