In October 2011 Dynalco Controls was merged with her sister company Barksdale Controls and is now one of the Barksdale brands. Dynalco was started in 1968, with three products and a goal of producing engineered solutions for the oil and gas industries. In the 47 years since, Dynalco has become a worldwide industry leader, recognized for its high-quality instruments and controls used in the oil & gas, chemical, power, marine and construction industries.
We are a CRANE CO. Company based in the U.S.
Since 1994, Barksdale and the Dynalco brand has been part of the Crane Co. family. Crane Co., is a publicly held (CR-NYSE) corporation headquartered in Stamford, CT. In 2015, Crane celebrated 160 years of continuous business operations, and throughout Crane Co., we remain as committed to R.T. Crane's words today as we were in 1855:
“I am resolved to conduct my business in the strictest honesty and fairness; to avoid all deception and
trickery; to deal fairly with both customers and competitors; to be liberal and just toward employees; and
to put my whole mind upon the business.”
This code of ethics is the benchmark we use to measure ourselves, and it guides us in all we do."
