The ESAB Group
In 1904, Oscar Kjellberg, a Swedish engineer was working on ships and boilers in Gothenburg, Sweden. He was not satisfied with the quality of repair jobs. His quest for a better technology led to the invention of the world's first covered electrode. And thus, Elektriska Svetsnings Aktie Bolaget (ESAB) was born. Today, ESAB employs around 6,700 people of which more than 600 are engaged in Research and Development at centers in Sweden, Holland, UK, Germany, USA, Brazil and India. The ESAB Group is owned by Colfax Corporation.
