The Arklay S. Richards Co., Inc. was founded in 1938 by a young ambitious engineer. By maintaining our founding principles we have grown into the oldest continuously family owned and operated thermocouple manufacturer in the country. The Arklay S. Richards Co., Inc. has a long list of family members who have worked in the company over the years.
