History
Industrial Scientific began in 1976 as the Research Division of the National Mine Service Company (NMS) with a focus on developing instrumentation to detect methane gas.[1][2] In 1985, NMS sold the division to founder Kenton McElhattan, and Industrial Scientific started its operations as a private company.[1] The catalyst for the separation stemmed from an argument with NMS's Scottish majority owner over a used microscope worth $600.[3][4]
In 2015, Industrial Scientific moved into a new 200,000 square foot headquarters in Robinson Township, Pennsylvania, consolidating their operations from four buildings in Oakdale, Pennsylvania and Findlay Township, Pennsylvania into one.[5]
In 2017, Industrial Scientific was acquired by Fortive, the parent company of Fluke, Tektronix, Matco Tools, among others.[6]
Acquisitions
In 2006, Industrial Scientific acquired Oldham S.A. of Arras, France, a company primarily manufacturing fixed gas monitoring Systems.[7]
In 2008, Industrial Scientific acquired DBO2, a company using a self developed data mining software to predict and forestall safety problems primarily in the building industry.[8]
In 2019, Industrial Scientific acquired Toronto software company Intelex Technologies, a developer of environmental, health and safety, and quality software. [9]
