EMI & EMC Shielding Materials and Enclosures Providers

EMI and EMC shielding materials and enclosures are essential for protecting electronic devices from electromagnetic interference and ensuring compliance with industry standards. This guide highlights top providers of shielding solutions, including materials like conductive coatings, metal enclosures, and gaskets, designed to enhance electromagnetic compatibility in various applications. The popular vendors include Holland Shielding Systems, Laird Technologies, Stockwell Elastomerics, Shielding Solutions Limited, eMEI Group, 3M, RAMAYES, Aeroflex, Willtek Communications, Keysight, R & S etc.

EMI stands for Electromagnetic Interference, one device's radiated field if not properly shielded/grounded will affect functioning of another nearby device.
EMC stands for Electromagnetic Compatibility,one device's conducted electric noise if not controlled will affect nearby device.
EMI and EMC are very important for any electronic/wireless equipments/devices.

EMI EMC measurements

EMI/EMC Testing include following measurements on the device under test(DUT). Conducted Emission, Radiated Emission, Conducted Immunity, Radiated Immunity. Various standards such as European standards for EMC have been developed to streamline the EMI/EMC certification process.

List of EMC standards followed worldwide can be obtained from following link:
