About Protocon Engineering
Protocon was established in 1964 and became a limited company when it moved to its existing site in 1969. Over the years the original building has been extended several times to its present size of over 5000 square feet.
The company has built its reputation on producing generally small, close limit components initially for the electronics industry. Today this has grown to encompass a variety of parts for the Medical Industry and for the civil and military Aerospace sectors.
Geoff and Maureen Smith are the current owners of the company.
