Poseidon8118:Can you clarify not as big
Sherwood is a huge company, much bigger than Scubapro (JWA) and USD combined. They have been in the life support business for more than 75 years. Dont believe me? If you have a gas grill look at the valve on the tank, it will say Sherwood on the handle regardless of the brand of grill. If you have a relative on oxygen the valve and regulator is a Sherwood. If you have a Fire Dept. their life support equipment is Harsco/Sherwood; Harsco is the parent company to Sherwood. Sherwood is the worldwide leader of valves and regulators and makes many other brands OEMs; they are part of Harscos gas technologies division. The company pulls in over 2 billion dollars a year with an annual growth of 280 million dollars.
Their BCs are made buy them supplied to Genesis (another company of theirs) and other scuba OEM's. If you meant not as popular please disregard this post.
This post is just to put in perspective how big Sherwood really is I believe a lot of people think their just another scuba company.
Here are a few links to make you believe that Sherwood is bigger;
