About Us
 G&W
Instruments evolved from a merging of two family businesses in the
early 1900's. E. Griebel Company originated before 1912 when Ernest,
Sr., along
with A.P. Trautwein, formed the firm of Carbondale Instruments.
In 1914, after
the death of his partner, Ernest incorporated and retained the same
name. In 1948, the company was again taken over by his sons, Walter
and Ernest, Jr. After the death of Ernest, Jr. in 1982, Robert,
son of Ernest, assumed the helm of the business until he went into
partnership with Ferdinand Weiss, a distant cousin whose family also
managed a successful glass business in Philadelphia.
