Isocom Components 2004 is the new trading name of Isocom Components that ceased trading April 2004 and went into liquidation in May 2004.

The assets and name were purchased 8th July 2004 by members of the former management team and a group of investors from the UK and Far East.

The company is operating from the same qualified premises at Park View Industrial Estate, Hartlepool, England and has already re-engaged key members of staff.

Sales and Marketing Director Justin Elvin, said he was "excited by the prospects open to the company, particularly by the strong mix of marketing and manufacturing experience brought by the outside investors".

Optocouplers and optoswitches remain the current focus of the manufacturer, with special selections and drop-in-replacements for industry standard parts from suppliers such as Toshiba, Fairchild, Motorola, QT, Sharp and NEC are available.

With the current shortages and the long lead-times generally offered this is expected to lift the sales of the new company.

The company retains its VDE and UL approval status.
