Mar-Dustrial Sales, Inc. first opened its doors in 1947 serving the commercial shipping and fishing industries. As ship chandlers, Mar-Dustrial, supplied Marine and inDustrial equipment to ships ported in the Pacific Northwest. Fluid sealing products, valves, deck equipment, and ship stores were supplied with the belief “You can not sell out of an empty cart”. Today that belief and a commitment to customer service and product knowledge are what sets Mar-Dustrial apart from the competition.
With deep roots in industrial supplies it wasn’t long before Mar-Dustrial began servicing the Pulp and Paper industry. FALK entered the picture in 1976. The FALK Corporation needed a distributor willing to inventory the necessary couplings and speed reducers to service the Pacific Northwest.
Mar-Dustrial welcomed the opportunity to supply the highest quality line of power transmission products available. Today Mar-Dustrial and FALK are virtually synonymous. Mar-Dustrial is one of only three factory authorized FALK RENEW repair facilities in the United States.
Mar-Dustrial remains the family owned and operated business that it started out as, however some things have changed. Mar-Dustrial added a branch in Longview Washington in 1986 to service the Pulp and Paper industry. Mar-Dustrial added a branch in Elko Nevada in 1996 to service the mining industry.
