Mission

Keson Industries is family owned and operated. We are dedicated to developing and manufacturing high quality measuring and marking devices. We continually strive to "measure up" to each customer's expectations by providing excellent customer service.

From Humble Beginnings

"If a job is worth doing, it's worth doing right," Roy F. Nosek.

In 1968 brothers Roy and Frank Nosek started Keson Industries, Inc. in Berwyn, Illinois. Beginning in a small office with inventory stored in an adjacent trailer, the brothers became a vital resource to professional tradespeople and contractors. Their idea: outstanding service was just as important as outstanding tools.

Three and a half decades later, Keson is still family owned. In 2002 we opened a state-of-the-art, 80,000-square-foot facility in Aurora, Illinois. We've grown because our service meets the same exacting standards as our products. Over the years, our tools have helped thousands of people do millions of jobs. Keson is the brand to trust for measuring and marking tools.
