ABOUT US

History

Tendaire Industries and Electrol Equipment, Inc. began operations in 1961 in Mankato, Minnesota. In 1987, Tendaire/Electrol expanded part of the manufacturing operations to Beresford, South Dakota. In 1991, Tendaire moved the corporate headquarters from Mankato to Beresford. Tendaire manufactures the Electrol Equipment line of products in Beresford and continues to market their products under both the Tendaire and Electrol names.
Tendaire/Electrol is a leader in the industry of a broad line of quality products manufactured primarily for the utility industries (telephone, electric and gas companies), municipal departments (street, water, sewer, fire, light, park) and also State and County highway departments. The products we manufacture include hydraulically driven generators, belt driven generators, truck body vibrators and utility truck basket heaters. In addition to these markets, Tendaire/Electrol products are also incorporated into products manufactured by original equipment manufacturers such as utility truck body builders, dump truck manufacturers and pressure washer manufacturers.
Tendaire/Electrol is proud that all their products are manufactured in the United States and that very few foreign made parts are used in their products. Tendaire/Electrol is an industry leader because of the standard they have established with high quality products and service. Tendaire/Electrol customers provide the best advertising: telling others about the satisfaction of Tendaire/Electrol products.
