Industrial Source

Industrial Source originated in 1945 operating under the name Eugene Welders Supply Company. In the late 1960's, we expanded into the Coos Bay market. In 1992, the Laing family purchased National Fire Fighter Corp, now National Extinguisher Service, a fire suppression supply company started in Eugene in 1951.

The wildland fire division, started in 1992, continues to operate as National Fire Fighter Corp. From the late 1990's through 2012, the Industrial Source business expanded into Salem, Portland, Medford, Grants Pass, and Roseburg and continued to grow through several acquisitions. In 2019, we moved from our original location in Eugene to a new state-of-the-art 40,000 square foot building in Springfield. Also in 2019, we acquired LPM Systems in Tualatin and expanded into the labeling and packaging market. Industrial Source is Oregon's largest independent and longest-running gas and welding supply company. Cryo Source, the Specialty Gas division of Industrial Source, manufactures and distributes pure specialty gases and calibration mixtures to your specifications

Our company has always operated under the premise that being locally owned and operated allows us to be directly involved with the issues of our customers. National firms cannot compete with our responsive customer service. With seven locations across Oregon, our products and services are easily accessible and we are able to quickly and easily adapt to your needs without the typical corporate bureaucracy, enabling us to consistently achieve our mission: "To be a relationship-based company delivering exceptional customer service and value in compressed gases and cryogenics, welding and fire suppression supplies and services."

We believe in building mutually beneficial relationships with our partners in business, our customers. To us that means selling the best product for the process it is being used for at a good value. It means knowing your business and your goals and using our combined experience and knowledge to help you accomplish your goals most efficiently. It is not about price, it is about value. Value is knowledge, service, getting it right the first time and being in a business relationship with a company that you can truly say you trust. If you are not already working with Industrial Source, National Extinguisher Service, Cryo Source, and LPM Systems, it would benefit your business and your customers to learn why we are the right supplier for you.
