About the company
Emerson Electric Co. is an international technology and engineering firm that delivers diverse solutions to industrial, commercial, and residential clients across the Americas, Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Europe. The company's operations are divided into two main segments: Automation Solutions, and Commercial & Residential Solutions. Through its Automation Solutions division, Emerson provides a range of products including advanced measurement and analytical instruments, industrial valves, and sophisticated process control software and systems. This segment caters to a broad spectrum of industries such as oil and gas, refining, chemical processing, power generation, life sciences, food and beverage, automotive manufacturing, pulp and paper production, metals and mining, and municipal water utilities. The Commercial & Residential Solutions segment focuses on climate control and other essential home and business applications.

The segment also delivers monitoring equipment and electronic control units for both gas and electric heating setups, specialized gas valves for furnaces and water heaters, furnace ignition systems, and an array of sensors and thermistors for home appliances, alongside general temperature sensors and controls. Furthermore, this division supplies reciprocating, scroll, and screw compressors, along with precision flow control mechanisms, comprehensive system diagnostics, and advanced environmental control systems. Beyond hardware, it extends its portfolio to include technologies for air conditioning, refrigeration, and lighting management. Complementing these offerings are services like facility design and product lifecycle management, site commissioning, ongoing facility monitoring, and energy modeling. The segment also manufactures tools for both professional tradespeople and DIY enthusiasts, and offers a suite of appliance solutions. Established in 1890, Emerson Electric Co. maintains its corporate headquarters in Saint Louis, Missouri.
