1910
Founded in 1910 in Columbus, Ohio, Ebinger Sanitary Manufacturing Company (EBCO) began as a manufacturer and marketer of drinking water coolers, sanitary fixtures, and plumbing supplies. Over time, the company’s products became synonymous with the OASIS name, leading to a rebrand that established OASIS as the official company identity.
