OVERVIEW:

WILCOX ENGINEERING ASSOCIATES

Wilcox Engineering Associates has been providing engineering and design services to entrepreneurs and businesses since 1973.

The company was founded by Geoffrey F. Wilcox, P.Eng. of Danbury, Connecticut, a licensed professional engineer with 40 years experience in the film, foil and paper converting fields and printing press design.

Mr. Wilcox is a past president of the Flexographic Technical Association, Inc., and was, for 10 years, an adjunct professor at the State University of New York.
Mr. Wilcox was licensed as a professional engineer in 1954 after graduating from the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering at the University of Toronto.

The company has grown to include a half-dozen associates of various disciplines who work together as a highly skilled professional team to meet clients' needs. Most of the firms' business comes from the converting and printing industries. Wilcox Engineering Associates is proud to provide its expertise from concept planning through to completion to companies large, small or brand new.
