Baldwin
Baldwin Filters traces its roots to 1936, when founder J.A. Baldwin recognized the importance of improving mobile filtration and designed a superior lube filter in Wisconsin. In 1953, the company relocated to Nebraska's heartland, beginning production with just nine employees. What started as a small operation has evolved into a global leader in filtration technology, now part of the Parker Hannifin Corporation Filtration Group.
Engineering Excellence in Filtration
Baldwin gains a competitive edge through a tradition of innovation, with engineers developing patented designs such as radial seal air filters, self-venting drain valves for fuel/water separators, and controlled release coolant products using 3-D CAD modeling and stereo lithographic prototyping. Unlike many filter assemblers, Baldwin builds filters from the base up, allowing for superior quality and cost control.
The company's vertically integrated manufacturing process ensures exceptional consistency across every product. All Baldwin filters undergo rigorous testing in their state-of-the-art technical center and extensive field testing, ensuring each filter meets or exceeds OEM specifications. This commitment to quality has made Baldwin a trusted supplier to both original equipment manufacturers and the aftermarket.
