In 1911, Lewen R. Nelson started a legacy of innovation with the foundation of Central Brass and Stamping Co. in Peoria, Illinois.

The company became L.R. Nelson Mfg. Co. Inc. and expanded the family leadership with Russell B. Nelson, and later Barton R. Nelson. Russell served as president and ran operations until the company was sold in 1972.

At that point, the Nelson family made a new name for themselves with the 150 and 200 series Big Gun Sprinklers and 5 models of impacts, launching Nelson Irrigation Corporation in Walla Walla, Washington.

Since then, the family and the product offerings have continued to grow. The company has expanded into many facets of irrigation including Rotator^® technology, pressure & flow control and most recently wireless automation. Now, Nelson offers truly holistic solutions, and is the home of some of the finest irrigation minds in the world.
