HISTORY

K. R. Anderson, Inc. was established in 1968 as a sales and distribution organization supporting high tech markets in the Silicon Valley. In 1987, K.R. Anderson added custom fabrication to its list of offerings. With the addition of Form-In-Place (FIP) gasketing lines in 1997 K. R. Anderson became the 1st company west of Mississippi to offer turn-key FIP EMI gasketing solutions. K. R. Anderson and Rocky Mountain based sister company, Krayden, merged into one company in 2013 under the Krayden name. Product lines common to both companies were now supported by Krayden while K.R. Anderson was spun off as an independent distribution and conversion company for its exclusive lines using the trade name KraFAB
