Territory Sales ManagerImperial SystemsFounded in October 2001 by Jeremiah Wann, Imperial Systems, Inc. has grown from a small family business into a leading North American manufacturer of industrial dust and fume collection equipment. Headquartered in Mercer, Pennsylvania, the company distinguishes itself by designing complete, custom systems from an end-user perspective, prioritizing long-term reliability and worker safety.

As regulatory bodies like OSHA have intensified their focus on combustible dust hazards since 2008, Imperial Systems has positioned itself as an essential partner for companies navigating these strict requirements.
