History

MSA Safety was founded in 1914 by George H. Deike, a mechanical engineer and an entrepreneur dedicated to protecting the lives and health of industrial workers. In the early 1900s, workers around the world had few protections to guard against industrial accidents, and many suffered severe injuries — or even death — from falling from heights or exposure to toxic gases. Deike’s pioneering work and focus on safety products changed that.
