Our Legacy

Our Legacy

Layne has a rich and diverse history dating back to 1882 where we began as a domestic water-well drilling company in South Dakota. From those humble roots coupled with over 135 years of experience, we have evolved into a global water and minerals and solutions provider serving both public and private sectors. Today, Layne is headquartered in the Woodlands, Texas.

Our safety culture is underpinned with relationship-based training, shared knowledge, and engagement at every level of our organization.  Safety is about connecting people. An authentic commitment from all will elevate our program, achieving safety success and ultimately – achieving zero injuries. Safety is deeply personal. At Layne, we are responsible for making safe choices not only for ourselves, but for those around us. We must take care of each other.
