Illinois Capacitor is a leading manufacturer of aluminum electrolytic, aluminum polymer, metalized film and power film capacitors for electronics, along with super capacitors (EDLC or ultra capacitors) for an even wider range of applications. Through close involvement with customers and suppliers, IC has been able to consistently deliver the components most needed for today’s high performance end products.
With headquarters and operations in Chicago, Illinois Capacitor has been in the capacitor business for more than 80 years and today supplies leading-edge aluminum electrolytic, film, conductive polymer, and electric double layer capacitors to industrial electronics companies worldwide. In addition to its Chicago location, which primarily services the North American market, Illinois Capacitor operates in the Asian markets via its Hong Kong sales and service center.
Cornell Dubilier announced on January 30, 2015 that one of its subsidiaries has acquired the assets of Illinois Capacitor and its affiliates. The company sees this acquisition as a strategic move to grow its board-level power capacitor business and to service customers in Asia through the sales, warehouse and logistics center that Illinois Capacitor currently operates out of Hong Kong.
