Kavlico Corporation was founded in 1958 by a Norwegian immigrant (Fred Kavli) and was originally located just north of Los Angeles in the San Fernando Valley in Chatsworth, California. In 1986, Kavlico relocated the entire operation to its current location on a 53-acre site in Moorpark, where the first two of three manufacturing facilities began operation. The first building with 183,000 square feet began manufacturing both pressure and position sensors.

In 1993, the second building was completed with manufacturing dedicated to the position sensor market. Kavlico’s third building was completed in 1998, increasing the overall office and manufacturing space to 314,000 square feet.

The first products to be manufactured were position sensors for use by the aerospace industry. Today, our current markets include products for the Aerospace, Automotive, HVAC, Medical, General Industrial and many other specialized industrial industries. Many of Kavlico’s customers are among Fortune’s top 500.
