KOBOLD Messring GmbH, a world-leading instrumentation engineering business, was founded in Germany in 1980 by Klaus J. Kobold. His engineering expertise quickly established the company in the global marketplace with patented technology, high quality products and superior service. The KOBOLD brand name soon became synonymous with superior quality and technological advancement in sensor and control instrumentation. In the following years, independent KOBOLD companies were established in numerous countries worldwide, including KOBOLD Instruments Inc. in the United States in 1989. The international group of KOBOLD companies is still led today by its president and sole proprietor Klaus Kobold.
