ESAB operates globally, serving customers in approximately 150 countries, with a significant presence in the Americas, EMEA, and APAC regions. The company's competitive position is strengthened by its rich history dating back to 1904, its continuous innovation in workflow solutions, and its ESAB Business Excellence (EBX) management system.
