UL Power Cords: Safety and Quality You Can Trust — Manufactured by STEX in Thailand and China

In today’s global marketplace, electrical safety is not just a requirement — it’s a commitment. Whether you’re producing appliances, industrial machinery, or consumer electronics, the reliability of your power cords plays a vital role in both product performance and end-user safety.

At STEX, our mission is simple: We Connect Beyond. As a trusted power cord manufacturer with facilities in Thailand and China, we specialize in producing UL-certified power cords that meet international standards and fulfill the needs of businesses worldwide. Backed by our ISO 9001-certified quality management system and ISO 14001-certified environmental practices, we deliver reliable, responsible, and scalable solutions for global customers.

What Is a UL Power Cord?

UL stands for Underwriters Laboratories, a globally recognized safety organization based in the United States. UL certification ensures that electrical products have passed rigorous testing related to flame resistance, insulation durability, voltage load, and mechanical strength.

A UL-certified power cord means it’s been tested and approved for safe use in the U.S. and Canada. It also signals compliance with export requirements for many global markets.

For OEMs and product integrators, using UL cords is not just a checkbox — it’s a strategic decision to reduce liability, enhance product credibility, and meet international compliance.

Where UL Power Cords Are Used

UL power cords are used across nearly every modern industry:

• Home appliances (microwaves, blenders, fans)

• Office electronics (printers, computers, monitors)

• Medical devices (diagnostic machines, lab equipment)

• Industrial tools (drills, welding machines, power supplies)

• Telecom and IT infrastructure (servers, routers, UPS)

Regardless of the application, UL compliance ensures peace of mind for manufacturers and users alike.
