The Zircon Advantage

Zircon Corporation, headquartered in the heart of Silicon Valley, California, U.S.A. achieved the highest sales volume in 2016 and to date, with more than 50 million stud finders being sold. It’s because we design, develop, and manufacture the largest selling line of innovative electronic stud finders, metal detectors, and electrical scanners for professional contractors and home improvement enthusiasts alike.

R&D
At Zircon, we are laser focused to understand, recognize, conceptualize, and engineer easy-to-use tools that solve every day problems and stand by them from project start to finish. Our diverse in-house engineering capabilities include custom chip design, software and firmware, display technology, mechanical design, rapid prototyping, and industrial design intended for a lifetime of rugged use.

A leader in the industry since 1980, we are the first to introduce new technologies such as over-the-stud indication, DeepScan® mode, WireWarning® detection, CenterVision™ technology, ACT™ Auto Correcting Technology, and more.

DESIGN
We keenly research, review, and propel the best of the best with our mantra “Form fits function.” Our industrial design emphasizes real world usage. Every curve, every angle, from the battery door release, power button, ergonomic grip, viewing angles, pivot points, no detail is too small or insignificant. While often imitated, we are never duplicated with all Zircon® products being highly proprietary and well protected by patents.
