Products Customers Want

Weldstar is a distributor for a wide range of products, from welding machinery and gases to accessories and safety equipment.

Weldstar is a formidable distributor,

but our association with the Independent Welding Distributors Co-operative provides us with the purchasing power and marketing abilities of a major Corporation.

IWDC is a “member owned” cooperative working together with its membership and approved manufacturers to give our members the opportunity to compete on a level playing field. The IWDC, with Weldstar, brings to your company major gas manufacturers and welding brand name products, along with Weldmark® private label items made by leading manufacturers.

IWDC is a “marketing” entity, much more than a “buying group”.  With its 151 members and over 650 total store locations in the United States, Canada & Mexico it gives coverage throughout North America. 

Currently in the North American marketplace (estimated $9 billion market), IWDC members account for just over $1.7 billion in retail in gases and hard good sales. Weldstar and the Independent Welding Distributors Cooperative (IWDC) create a powerful team.  We welcome the opportunity to provide competitive pricing and world class service in meeting your welding needs.
