Heritage & History

Forney Industries was founded in Fort Collins, Colorado in 1932, entering the welding equipment market during the Depression era when American manufacturing and infrastructure demand required reliable, affordable welding tools. The company grew through the postwar manufacturing boom, expanding its product line from basic arc welding equipment to a comprehensive catalog of welding machines, electrodes, wire, accessories, and metalworking tools.

Fort Collins sits in northern Colorado's Front Range corridor, where the Rocky Mountain manufacturing tradition meets the agricultural and industrial needs of the Great Plains. Forney's presence in this region reflects the practical demands of Colorado's mining, agriculture, and construction industries, which provided the brand's earliest and most loyal customers.

Made in Fort Collins, Colorado

Forney Industries manufactures welding equipment and accessories from its Fort Collins, Colorado base, producing stick welders, MIG welders, TIG welders, and the consumables — electrodes, wire, rods — that those machines require. Colorado's manufacturing sector, though less prominent than industrial states to the east, has supported Forney's domestic production for nine decades.

The company's product line covers the full spectrum of welding applications: from entry-level multi-process welders for DIY metalwork to professional-grade equipment for industrial fabrication. Made in the USA welding equipment from a company that has been building American metalworking capability since the Great Depression.
