On 1 June 2004, Phoenix Contact signed a distributorship agreement with Electrocomp for its range of Combicon PCB connectors and housings. Combicon is the brand name for Phoenix Contact’s world-leading range of PCB connectors and housings.
From its German origins in 1923 as Phönix Elektrizitätsgesellchaft, Phoenix Contact has evolved to become a leading manufacturer with a high commitment to quality and innovation. It says that its key aim is to simplify customers' tasks and create more efficient connection technology. Striving to create smaller, faster and easier to use interconnect solutions, it leads by following the slogan: 'Innovation in Interface'.
