Today
NLB Corporation is a global innovator recognized around the world as the leader in water jet productivity. NLB was acquired by global industrial titan, Interpump Group S.p.A. in 2007, and under the leadership of NLB President and CEO, Drew Waltenbaugh, has continued to firmly hold that position while expanding its reach into new and existing water jetting applications.
