Our History:

MESA Corrosion Control, Inc. was incorporated in El Paso, Texas in l979. The focus of the company was engineering and technical services in the field of cathodic protection. A relocation of the company to Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1980 created opportunity for expansion in Midwestern U.S. markets.

In the early 1980's, the company began offering materials and installation services in addition to technical services. Through relationships established with several major pipeline clients in the Midwest and expanded construction capabilities, the MESA client base increased dramatically. These relationships, along with several large projects, enabled MESA to maintain a steady profitable growth through a depressed period in the industry. In l986, MESA opened a branch office in Tallahassee, Florida.

In l984, MESA Products, Inc. was formed in Tulsa to sell corrosion instruments, meters, tools, and supplies and to function as a supplier to MESA Corrosion Control. Beginning in l985, the MESA Products, Inc. focus was expanded to include a complete line of corrosion control products, including sacrificial anodes, impressed current anodes and accessories.

The rapid rate of growth experienced by MESA Products, Inc. during the 1980's enabled the company to be included in INC. magazine's l989 list of the 500 fastest growing private companies in the United States. Currently, MESA supplies materials to over 1000 customers, including pipeline operators, production companies, contractors, local utility companies, resellers and municipalities.

In l989, MESA purchased the assets of AGRA Equipment Company. The AGRA product line, consisting primarily of cathodic protection instruments and test equipment, was fully integrated into the MESA organization.

MESA opened a Houston branch office in l997 to service the Gulf Coast region of the United States. The focus of this office is to market cathodic protection materials to contractors and end-users. This office also manages MESA's international business.

MESA opened a Los Angeles office in 2005 to service the materials market on the West Coast and, in 2007, MESA opened a 5th branch office in Ft. Worth, Texas to expand its installation and construction operations.

MESA opened an Ohio branch in 2009, located in Wapakoneta, to increase our services capabilities and expertise.  This Midwest office has a specific emphasis on tanks and terminals, with an overall goal of regional expansion of cathodic protection services into the upper Midwest.
