We represent the worlds leading timer manufacturers: AKO, Diehl and Flash. Our company philosophy is simple, to provide customers with high quality products that meet their needs at a fair price in the shortest possible time. In fact, most of our products are shipped the next business day. Every product featured on this site is currently in stock at our warehouse. While Borgs customers include many fortune 500 companies and well known electrical distributors, our policy of not imposing a minimum order qualities is ideal for our smaller clients. Our warehouse is located in Elk Grove Village, IL. only minutes from OHare Airport. Borg was formed in 1937 by George W. Borg as a manufacturer of time clocks used in automobiles. During World War II, Borg manufactured timers used by the U.S. military. In 1984 Borg was purchased by Diehl GmbH as their distribution arm in North America. Diehl sold Borg in 1994. Today, Borg is the exclusive distributor of AKO, Diehl and Flash timers in North America, Central America and the Caribbean.
