Designatronics, Inc. was founded in 1960 and is a holding company for the Divisions and Subsidiaries listed to the right. Formerly, the company's shares had been traded on the American Stock Exchange.

On September 1, 1995, all the public shares were purchased by an Investment Trust, and the company became privately owned.

The company conducts all its sales and marketing through its divisions and subsidiaries and, therefore, only its divisional and subsidiary names are generally recognized in the market place.

Each division publishes their own extensive catalogs which are distributed throughout the world.

Designatronics' entire operation is located in New Hyde Park, New York occupying four buildings in close proximity with a total floor space of 147,000 square feet (13,656 square meters).
