History

Marlow Industries Incorporated was founded by Raymond Marlow in 1973 as a five-person team that focused on thermoelectric cooling technology for the defense sector.
In 1991, Marlow Industries Incorporated received the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award, an award created by Congress to recognize American world-class quality companies; Marlow Industries was recognized for its work in improving the company through deployment of a Total Quality Management system.
In 2004, the company was acquired by II-VI Incorporated. Marlow Industries Incorporated became a subsidiary of the company and began operating within II-VI’s Compound Semiconductor Group.

It now includes various component and system assembly lines and an engineering design center.
In 2007, Marlow Industries Incorporated announced an equity stake in Fuxin Electronics, a company based in Guangdong Province, China, in order to allow both companies to expand opportunities in the thermoelectric industry.
In 2014, Marlow Industries Incorporated became a division of II-VI Incorporated reporting to the Advanced Product Group, now known as II-VI Marlow.
