About Us
Industrial Source originated in 1945 operating under the name Eugene Welders Supply Company. In the late 1960's, we expanded into the Coos Bay market. In 1992, the Laing family purchased National Fire Fighter Corp, now National Extinguisher Service, a fire suppression supply company started in Eugene in 1951.
The wildland fire division, started in 1992, continues to operate as National Fire Fighter Corp. From the late 1990's through 2012, the Industrial Source business expanded into Salem, Portland, Medford, Grants Pass, and Roseburg and continued to grow through several acquisitions. In 2019, we moved from our original location in Eugene to a new state-of-the-art 40,000 square foot building in Springfield. Also in 2019, we acquired LPM Systems in Tualatin and expanded into the labeling and packaging market. Industrial Source is Oregon's largest independent and longest-running gas and welding supply company. Cryo Source, the Specialty Gas division of Industrial Source, manufactures and distributes pure specialty gases and calibration mixtures to your specifications
Our company has always operated under the premise that being locally owned and operated allows us to be directly involved with the issues of our customers. National firms cannot compete with our responsive customer service. With seven locations across Oregon, our products and services are easily accessible and we are able to quickly and easily adapt to your needs without the typical corporate bureaucracy, enabling us to consistently achieve our mission: "To be a relationship-based company delivering exceptional customer service and value in compressed gases and cryogenics, welding and fire suppression supplies and services."
We believe in building mutually beneficial relationships with our partners in business, our customers. To us that means selling the best product for the process it is being used for at a good value. It means knowing your business and your goals and using our combined experience and knowledge to help you accomplish your goals most efficiently. It is not about price, it is about value. Value is knowledge, service, getting it right the first time and being in a business relationship with a company that you can truly say you trust. If you are not already working with Industrial Source, National Extinguisher Service, Cryo Source, and LPM Systems, it would benefit your business and your customers to learn why we are the right supplier for you.
One of the things we are most proud of is our dedication to giving back to the communities that help sustain our businesses. We eagerly contribute 10% of our net income back to our local communities through cash/merchandise donations and paid employee volunteer hours. Each employee is encouraged to volunteer at least 16 hours of their time each year during the work day and they are paid to do so. We love volunteering for organizations such as Big Brothers Big Sisters, FOOD for Lane County, March of Dimes, Coburg Fire District and our local schools. Our employees are also involved in recommending and evaluating cash/merchandise requests. We love supporting and hold many organizations close to our hearts including Courageous Kids, Relief Nursery, Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) and Food For Lane County.
IS/NES/NFF/LPM/ADCOA is proud to offer our employees and their dependents a comprehensive health insurance plan. To comply with the Transparency in Coverage rules, we’ve made available the formal documents outlining our self-insured health plan offered through Cigna.

"Working with Industrial Source has been a refreshing change from other gas suppliers we have used. Our regular deliveries arrive on time, and Industrial Source is quick to help with any special orders or additional deliveries we need. As an added bonus, the paperwork is easy to understand, and, if we have a question regarding it, it’s easy to reach their team and get the info we need. I can recommend Industrial Source without reservation."
Lange Estate Winery
Jesse Lange

“Lange Estate Winery has been partnering with the team at Industrial Source for the past few years. Their attention to detail, responsive customer service, and dependability are industry best. We’ve really enjoyed working with them and would recommend them to anybody looking to upgrade.”
Farwest Steel Vancouver
Larry Hauck, Head of Fabrication

“Industrial Source’s staff have been incredibly responsive; there were several times when the Farwest team had a rush job on a weekend of offshift and Industrial Source got them what was needed with just a phone call. Mike Courtney and the rest of the staff at Industrial Source have been professional, courteous, and very knowledgeable when communicating with the Farwest team.”

"My husband and I are customers down in the Medford area and I wanted to just let you know as HR Manager that you have some wonderful employees. The Medford staff with Myron, Cory and others are great to work with. They are helpful, knowledgeable and make it fun to shop there! And Lindsay in Accounting has been BEYOND accommodating and understanding with me and wanting reports on our account etc."
"I'm so glad my husband started using Industrial Source more than the other welding supply here in town… the Medford staff & Lindsay make it totally worth it! Thanks again!"
Morgan Beck, Winemaker from Johan Vineyards
Working with Industrial Source for our winery gas needs is an absolute breeze. Whether I email or call our order in, the team is extremely quick to respond, confirm our order, and ensure it arrives in on the next route in our area. If we ever have "emergency"/last minute needs, they do their best to make it happen and help get us what we need! I can't say enough about Industrial Source, our sales rep, or the team at our Salem location -- Industrial Source has had our business for 10+ years and will remain our winery gas provider for years to come.
