Our Founders

Oscar Kjellberg was the first to grasp the potential of strong flux coating to avoid air contamination, and he is widely regarded as the creator of the coated electrode. Since Kjellberg created Elektriska Svetsnings-Aktiebolaget (ESAB) in Sweden in 1904, the firm has led the welding industry in engineering and innovation, never losing sight of ESAB's initial purpose of providing the finest quality goods and services to its clients.

Alloy Rods Corporation, L-TEC Welding & Cutting Systems, All-State Welding Products, ESAB Automation, and ESAB Welding Products merged to become ESAB in 1989. These firms have over 300 years of expertise in the development of welding consumables and equipment and have created numerous revolutionary products and techniques, such as stainless stick and low hydrogen electrodes, as well as submerged arc, TIG ("Heliarc"), and MIG welding.
