Mission MSA is an organization fully committed to protecting the health and safety of our customers, and we spend countless hours developing, testing, and evaluating our products to ensure we achieve our goals. Our company was founded in 1914 from humble beginnings and has grown to include more than 4.800 employees across the world, protecting workers in more than 140 countries. But we’ve never forgotten who we are, or who we work for: our customers. Their satisfaction and safety are our top goals, every day.
MSA's values are the foundation of our company culture. Our seven core values define who we are and what make us truly stand apart. Most of all, they are encompassed by a "culture of safety" that helps to ensure we never lose sight of our mission and how it applies to our very own people around the world.
Description Everybody needs a purpose. At MSA, we’ve been protecting lives for more than 100 years.
Nearly a century ago, our founders’ passion to make mining safer convinced Thomas Edison to help invent our first product – the electric-cap lamp -- which saved countless lives. Thousands of products later, our hardworking associates are steadfastly carrying on a mission to protect people at work: a mission that has remained unchanged since MSA’s beginnings.
Today, MSA is the global leader in the development, manufacture and supply of safety products that protect people and facility infrastructures. The company's comprehensive line of products includes self-contained breathing apparatus, fixed gas and flame detection systems, portable gas detection instruments, industrial head protection products, fire and rescue helmets, and fall protection devices. MSA has operations in more than 40 international locations, including in the United States, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America.
