Alps Electric Company Description
The Alps conjure up thoughts of mountain meadows and world-class skiing, but Alps Electric brings to mind electronics devices. Alps Electric makes a wide array of electronic components, including connectors, sensors, switches, magnetic heads, and potentiometers. The company also makes peripheral products (color LCDs, printers, remote controls); automotive electronics (keyless entry systems, steering switches); and communications components (optical modules, transceivers, tuners for satellite systems and televisions). Alps derives almost three-quarters of its sales outside of Japan.
