Lord Corporation

Lord Corporation

LORD Corporation was founded by Hugh Lord, a patent attorney whose curiosity and analytical
thinking around mechanics resulted in many inventions. It all began in 1924 when he thought
automobiles were too loud. His patents in noise and vibration control led to quieter automobiles.
Today, LORD has more than 3,000 employees in 26 countries and operates 19 manufacturing
facilities and 10 R&D centers worldwide. LORD Corporation is a diversified technology and
manufacturing company developing highly reliable adhesives, coatings, motion management
devices, and sensing technologies that significantly reduce risk and improve product
performance. LORD has worked in collaboration with our customers to provide innovative oil
and gas, aerospace, defense, automotive and industrial solutions. LORD actively promotes
STEM education and many other community engagement initiatives. As our next generation of
innovators, LORD is proud to offer scholarships benefiting College of Engineering and/or
College of Sciences students. For more information, visit www.lord.com.
