Our Story

Silver Fox is the leading global manufacturer of cable and equipment labels. The unique Fox-in-a-Box® thermal printer is trusted by Data & Telecom, and Electrical & Instrumentation Engineers globally, solving their labeling challenges.

Silver Fox was founded in 1979 by Nick Michaelson and remains a family business today, with his wife Michelle joining over 20 years ago, and more recently their two sons, and daughter also joining the business, working with the wider Silver Fox family, ready to guide it into the next 40 years.

The company proudly manufactures all products in-house in Hertfordshire, UK, with no intention of outsourcing this crucial piece of the product offering. 

The Labacus Innovator® software used in tandem with the Fox-in-a-Box® is also developed in-house and continues to be the most comprehensive labeling software on the market.

Silver Fox has four family values, which are upheld every day.
