Cygnus began as a trading company in the Sixties,established
to supply frioen vegetables to U.S. troops in Vietnam. Whule
E.I.Du Pont chose us as their dealer of Freon gas, Cygnus
became one of the largest wholesalers in Taiwan very quickly.
In the following years, such prestigious companies as Sumitomo
Light Metal Indus-tries of Japan, Atochem (EIF) of France
and Caravell of Denmark were added as major partners in the
early stage. The product line was soon expanded to include
air . conditioning equipment and parts, copper tubing, freezers,
refrigera-tion cabinets and show cases.
In the early Seventies, Cygnus further diversified into the
fast growing electronic market in Taiwan A strong relationship
was developed with Republic Foil, a subsidiary of National
Steel(USA).Utilizing their technical support,Cygnus rapidly
became a major supplier,processor and slitting agent of aluminium
foil in Taiwan.The addition of a line of electrolytic capacitor
paper from Japan made Cygnus a key supplier of rawmaterials
to the Electronics, a sister company, was formed then to manufacture
electrolytic capacitors.This move twenty years ago has proven
quite successful. Aside from that, filtration materials, Westpoint
home appliances, IMA tea bag /pharmaceutical packing machines
and Mogul water treatment products weve added to our supply
list one by one.
