Our Story

In 1970, founders Jack Routson and Marvin Cutright established Gamlet, Inc., which operated as Trola Industries, specializing in manufacturing custom electro-mechanical relay control panels and lubrication skid assemblies under the name Trola-Dyne. As a pioneer in using programmable logic controllers, the company expanded its service offerings throughout the 1970s and gained a reputation as a “systems house,” later known as a “control system integrator.” A 1978 asset sale led to a spin-off and the birth of Trola Industries, Inc., its own separate corporation.

The 1980s saw Trola Industries diversify its services to include installation, calibration, and 24-hour emergency repair, while centering its product offerings around the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), complemented by an IBM PC-based local operator station introduced in 1985. The company developed a particular specialty in “Sequential” control, intrinsic to “batch” processing systems, which led to a deep market expertise and recognition as a vertical specialist in industries that demand such control systems.

Throughout the remainder of its journey, Trola Industries has transformed itself from manufacturing simple control panels to a comprehensive solution provider, integrating new facets of controls technology and information systems into its repertoire. Its future lies intrinsically connected with its past – specialization in innovating the way manufacturers make things better.
