European Passive Industry Database

The European Passive Industry Database has been created in order to provide an overview of the European based manufacturers, testhouses and universities with consistent research program in the field of passive components.

Companies with at least one European based manufacturing/research site are welcome to register by the online form here: manufacturers, testhouses and universitites.*

The registration is validating public information about your company with benefits to  potential clients, institutions, industry offset programs. Thanks to the European Space Agency support, the registration to the EPCI database is free of charge.

* registration data processing info: Following the EU GDPR rules, the registered data are collected solely for a purpose of European Passive Components Institute’s (EPCI) industry database. No sensitive personal and entity data are required. Registered entities can anytime, with immedite effect, request to modify or delete their profile data. Information provided are kept by the EPCI database only, not shared to any third party entities, neither used for marketing or sales campaigns. By registration you agree to add the profile information to the EPCI industry database. In case of questions or clarification about handling of your emails please contact us using the website contact form.
