Our History

In 1904, ESAB’s founder, Oscar Kjellberg, invented the world’s first coated welding electrode. Ever since, the brand has been the leader in fabrication technology, delivering efficient, high- productivity solutions to customers in the world’s biggest manufacturing industries. Voice-of- customer research is at the heart of the company’s new product development, allowing ESAB to make meaningful improvements that deliver real impacts.

At ESAB Corporation, we seek to strengthen our position as global pioneers in world-class manufacturing technology – a reputation we’ve strived to achieve and sustain since our founding. Today, with 9,000 employees located across 47 countries, ESAB brands have been innovating new technologies, reaching new milestones, and writing the history of welding for more than a century.

Adopting the proven principles of continuous improvement, we utilize ESAB Business Excellence (EBX) as our operating model, based on the Danaher Business System. EBX is fueled by our core values and is the foundation of our approach to business, and its implementation has set the stage for rapid growth.

While continuing to build a global team as diverse and talented as those we serve – and with relentless accountability for positive results to ourselves, our customers, and the communities in which we operate – we aim to become a $3 billion enterprise and expand into adjacent industrial technology segments over the next several years.

As our founder Oscar Kjellberg shaped the history of welding, ESAB is eager to shape the future of our industry.
