Glen Ellyn , IL - 2005 marks an important anniversary for Dreisilker Electric Motors, Inc., a world class provider of commercial and industrial motors, drives, controls, repair, and field service. Dreisilker celebrates its 50th anniversary this year by taking stock of its accomplishments, focusing on repair plant improvements and product expansions, and looking at further branch expansion.

Started in 1955 by Henry Dreisilker, the company began by specializing in commercial and industrial motor repair and sales. Combining old-world craftsmanship with advanced technology, the company grew steadily from three employees to over 120.

What started as a 750 sq. foot facility has grown into one of the largest and most modern 73,500 sq. foot electric motor sales and repair centers in the USA . The corporate headquarters in Glen Ellyn is supported by additional sales and repair facility in McHenry and 5 other sales locations throughout the Chicagoland area, as well as on the Internet via our e-commerce site, emotorstore.com.

 “I’m very proud to be able to carry on the traditions my father began and look forward to leading our company into the future by being committed to quality, attention to detail and exceptional customer service,” says Leo Dreisilker, President.

A company celebration is planned for May of 2005, and Dreisilker will promote its milestone through print and on-line advertising, direct mail, website, and at all branch locations.
