Devonshire Industries Ltd. Corporate Profile

An industry leader in the development of products designed for cleaning sensitive optical surfaces, Devonshire Industries Ltd is a specialty manufacturing company whose markets include aerospace, retail, industry, sports, San-Jan, government agencies, and more.

Our core business is the Optico Professional line of products, which combine our highly effective 4Optix cleaning solution with the trusted DuPont™ Sontara® nonwoven fabric wipe. Optico wipes are available in a range of sizes, packaging and liquid formulations, from regular, to anti-fog to weatherproof.

Devonshire is dedicated to the highest standards of quality control for our complete line of products, which are tailor-made for a variety of applications. We work with our customers to design the right format and packaging for their needs and offer products ranging from hermetically-sealed ‘single-service’ packages, to foaming spray, to industrial-sized dispensers.

After a rigorous testing and analysis phase, Optico Cleaning Wipes have received approvals for use aboard commercial and military aircraft by numerous aerospace companies. The formulation was found to meet or exceed required OEM cleaning specs required by Honeywell Aerospace, Thales Avionics, Boeing, Airbus, Rockwell Collins Aviation Electronics, and more.

Devonshire’s new division is a burgeoning line of anti-bacterial products, named Sterilex®, developing rapidly as both a name brand and a distinct private label opportunity.

Devonshire boasts years of experience in every aspect of private label development, including: branding, product selection, QC implementation, custom package design, in-store promos and media advertising.
