Commonly Asked Questions and Answers About CPI
CPI was founded in 1946. Control Products, Inc’s first sales were to the US government in military applications and switches designed by CPI continue to be used extensively in military equipment. Today, CPI provides creative control solutions to a diverse group of markets, where high reliability is needed in demanding applications. The company’s success can be attributed to a mission “to be THE company that provides the highest level of service”. That mission is focused by an ISO9001 quality system and supported by a conservative management philosophy which places a high value on all employees.
CPI is fearlessly led by Cliff Moodie, the president of Control Products. Cliff is a graduate of Lehigh College of Business and has led the company since 1990.
