Bender Inc. is celebrating 40 years of innovation and dedication since its founding in 1983, when the German parent company, Bender GmbH, established a subsidiary in Pennsylvania to meet the growing demand for electrical safety equipment across North America. This move marked a strategic step toward becoming a global leader in electrical safety solutions.
From its humble beginnings in Exton, Pennsylvania, with just four employees focused on healthcare applications, Bender Inc. quickly expanded into diverse sectors such as mining, shipbuilding, power generation, and more. The company's culture is built on innovation, with a strong emphasis on identifying risks before they occur, ensuring the safety of both people and equipment while minimizing downtime through proactive maintenance.
The U.S. market has always been a key priority for Bender, and that remains true today. With the rise of electric vehicles and green energy initiatives, Bender is well-positioned to support new infrastructure needs, including EV charging stations and electric transportation systems.
Throughout its 40-year history, Bender Inc. has achieved significant milestones, including product innovations and strategic acquisitions. In 1987, after losing a major client, the company launched Bender Medical Products to continue manufacturing isolated power panels. By 1995, it had acquired ISOTROL and Isolation Systems Products, strengthening its market presence.
In 1993, Bender introduced the EDS series, a groundbreaking ground-fault location system. A decade later, it developed advanced fault current and residual current monitoring systems for grounded power networks. These innovations helped solidify its reputation for reliability and technical excellence.
In 2004, Bender expanded into the entertainment industry by launching Bender Entertainment Systems, providing GFCIs to the film industry. Then, in 2009, it introduced the ISOMETER® line for electric vehicles, followed by the iso-F1 for Formula 1 KERS systems, showcasing its versatility and forward-thinking approach.
Today, Bender Inc. operates from its headquarters in Exton, supported by a network of regional representatives and distributors across the U.S. The company continues to grow, driven by a commitment to innovation, customer service, and safety.
Walther Bender’s vision from 1939—creating the first insulation monitoring device to protect workers and equipment in mines—still guides the company today. Over 80 years later, Bender remains at the forefront of electrical safety, with over 1,200 employees worldwide, more than 500 working internationally, and 15% dedicated to R&D.
With annual sales reaching $220 million and operations in 14 countries, Bender continues to lead the way in electrical safety. As a family-owned business managed by the third generation, it maintains its core values while expanding globally.
Bender Inc. is proud to be part of a legacy that shapes the future of energy. Its mission is to lead the way in designing safer, smarter energy solutions for a world that depends on power. With 40 years of success behind it, the company looks forward to many more decades of growth, innovation, and impact.
