About Lord Corporation

Lord Corporation is a privately held manufacturing company, producing a variety of products that serve a diverse set of industries. Currently, they are headquartered in Cary, North Carolina, and they operate in around 26 countries worldwide.

Lord Corporation was first established in 1919 by Hugh C. Lord, a Pennsylvania patent attorney who was investigating the use of bonding rubber to metal in order to isolate and control noise, shock, and vibrations. By the 1920’s, General Electric served as a major customer of Lord Corporation, utilizing their mount products for their trolley cars. This led to other companies such as Lincoln and Nash Motors to also begin using Lord products, increasing their sales and popularity.

During the 1940’s, the company was incorporated and would begin diversifying their operations into new industries such as aerospace and railroads. During this time, Lord Corporation produced a variety of engine mounts that benefitted aircraft, railroad cars, and busses. During the Korean War, the company also made rubber substitutes and adhesives for various vehicles and aircraft.

After the war, Lord Corporation began to expand their reach, establishing multiple facilities and offices both domestically and internationally. During this time, the company also continued to expand their product offerings and manufacturing capabilities. In 2019, Parker Hannifin announced its intention to acquire Lord Corporation, and the deal was completed that same year.
