Founded as Enfab, Inc. in 1953 by Harold Higbee and Lu Taylor. Mr. Higbee died in 1955, leaving Lu Taylor to assume sole leadership of the company. In 1991, Lu Taylor became Chairman of the Board and his son, Dave, became President.

Velcon is a privately held corporation

  • The first products were fabricated fiberglass components for the 2.75 Rocket sold to the government
  • This technology led to the development of a proprietary fiberglass filter “coalescer” in 1957
  • Penetration of these markets has steadily increased
  • Velcon now supplies more replacement cartridges to purify jet fuel than any other company in the world
