The Roots of GCE Industrial

Henry James, an American-British novelist, once stated, "It takes an endless amount of history to make even a little tradition." GCE Industrial embodies this sentiment, reflecting our rich tradition and principles forged over 30+ years in the gas control industry. To understand GCE Industrial is to delve into the very roots of GCE itself—they are inseparable.

• The Origins (1987): While the GCE group was founded in 1987, the foundation of our inception lies in the early 20th Century with the advent of oxyacetylene cutting and welding.
• Starting Strong (1987 - 1997): GCE's journey began with strategic acquisitions of top gas equipment brands, including Rhona in Germany, Charledave in France, Mujelli in Italy, Autogen in the Czech Republic, and Druva in Germany, to establish an impressive presence throughout Europe.
• Further Expansion (1997 - 2011): Over the following decade, the GCE Group expanded its reach from the UK with the acquisition of BUTBRO to Germany through the addition of Kayser.
• Global Branding (2011): The pivotal year of 2011 marked GCE's inaugural global rebranding, introducing sub-brands and a compelling brand promise, solidifying its position as an industry leader.
• Rebranding (2018): GCE underwent a crucial rebranding, unifying all independent brands into three powerful brands – GCE, GCE Healthcare, and GCE Druva.
• GCE Industrial Emerges (2024): GCE is introducing a divisional brand exclusively for the industrial sector with renewed vigor, passion, and an unyielding commitment to its origins. This divisional brand serves as a home for the numerous sub-brands within our expanding industrial portfolio.
