Torus Power Inc. is a Toronto (North York) maker of toroidal isolation transformers and power conditioners for audio, video, and control systems, incorporated in February 2016 by Howard Gladstone after he sold his earlier company, Plitron Manufacturing Inc. The team page describes an in-house factory with its own winding and assembly staff, using Plitron's patented Narrow Bandwidth Technology, and the company sells directly through Torus Power Direct and through dealers such as Toronto's Executive Stereo. Ownership could not be confirmed against a corporate registry, so it rests on the company's own account of its founding.

Factors

Ownership

CA 100%

The company's own team page says Howard Gladstone incorporated Torus Power Inc in February 2016 after selling his earlier company, Plitron Manufacturing Inc, and lists him as Chairman and CEO with no other named owners or investors. A Corporations Canada federal registry search for Torus turned up no match for Torus Power Inc, consistent with a provincial incorporation, and the Ontario Business Registry search was blocked by its bot-protection captcha, so ownership rests on the vendor's own account rather than a registry filing.

Manufacturing

The careers page lists an onsite production role 'based at our factory located in North York' at 601 Magnetic Drive, and the team page names in-house production staff including transformer winding technicians, an assembly team leader, and a production floor manager. The home page states transformers are manufactured in Toronto, and no second manufacturing site or contract factory was found.

No page discloses where copper wire, steel laminations, or electronic components come from, though the team page lists an in-house raw materials buyer. Toroidal transformer manufacturing is copper- and steel-intensive and Torus Power does not claim domestic material sourcing beyond its own winding and assembly work, so this mix assumes most core materials are imported from outside North America, with a smaller share from Canada and the US for enclosures, hardware, and components; this is an estimate, not a documented figure.
