This slideshow highlights manufacturing companies that have a history that spans at least 100 years.

Surviving and growing for 100 years or more is no easy feat for a manufacturing company. Explore this showcase of manufacturers that have demonstrated such resiliency and then read the companion piece, "Staying Power: Manufacturers that Stand the Test of Time."

Part 1 of IndustryWeek's showcase of century old manufacturers, which you are viewing now, illustrates companies with roots that go back to the 1800s or before. Part 2 of this salute to century old manufacturers presents firms whose beginnings date back to 1900.

This slideshow is not a comprehensive list of all manufacturing companies that have reached the century mark. IndustryWeek will continue to add manufacturers to the timeline, and we welcome input from you.

Check back often for continued updates and share your ideas about what companies to add.
