OUR HERITAGEIn 2014, Globe celebrated 100 years
of continuous production of Globe
Sprinklers and Valves, longer than any
other sprinkler manufacturer. Charles
Garrett, of the Garrett Sprinkler
Company in Cincinnati, Ohio, began
production of the first Globe sprinkler
in 1914. Consolidating operations
with Merchant & Evans, Globe moved
its production to Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania in 1916. In 1975 the
company moved to its present
location in Standish, Michigan.
In 1988, Globe was purchased by
the late Robert C. Worthington, P.E.,
whose leadership instilled a sense
of pride and commitment to high-
quality U.S. produced products, a
family-friendly workplace rooted in
the community, and the philosophy
that long-term relationships are
the foundation of success in both
personal and business life.
