| Ritchie Engineering Company was started in 1946 by
Jack Ritchie as a manufacturers representative organization before
becoming a hose manufacturer in the late 40's. Jack's father, John
Sr., came out of retirement to help out part time and stayed for about
another 30 years. With the emphasis on quality and service, the hose
developed at Ritchie was trademarked in 1950 as Yellow JacketŪ Charging
Hoses. Today, it's the industry's leading line of hoses. During the
60s, the Yellow Jacket brand and reputation expanded to include test
and charging manifolds. |
| Jack’s two sons, Steve and Tom, joined the company
in the early 70s and lead the business today as the top management
team. Through the years they helped bring vacuum pumps and tubing
tools to market during the continued growth of the 70s and 80s. |
| It’s a growth pattern and commitment to quality
that continues today with the acquisition of RST, a leading recovery
systems manufacturer, and Corrosion Consultants, a UV lights and dyes
manufacturer. Ritchie developmental resources are currently focused
on completing a line of Yellow Jacket electronic products. Building
on the position as a leading supplier of air conditioning and refrigeration
tools in the U.S., Ritchie Engineering is expanding the Yellow Jacket
brand and reputation worldwide. |
