BAUER Hockey

BAUER Hockey designs, develops, manufactures and markets ice hockey equipment: skates, sticks, helmets, gloves, pads, goalie gear and apparel for players at every level, from youth leagues to professionals. Engineering and design work spans materials engineering, protective equipment design, product design and development, manufacturing and apparel design, with a stated emphasis on new materials and technologies.

The company was founded in 1927 in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada, and operates from a headquarters in Exeter, New Hampshire, USA, with additional facilities in Quebec, Canada. It developed the first skate with a blade attached to a boot. Bauer describes its product as worn by more hockey players than any other brand, and positions itself as the world's leading designer, developer, manufacturer and marketer of ice hockey equipment.

Nearly a century in the game underpins the company's culture, which it describes as heritage-driven and focused on innovation. Its teams work across ice hockey equipment, sporting goods, protective equipment, sports apparel and manufacturing.
