About Empire Level The history of Empire is synonomous with the modern level itself. HenryZiemann, a master carpenter, founded the Empire Level ManufacturingCorporation in 1919 by inventing the first level with replaceablebubble vials. Ziemann''s son Harry was responsible for developingthe torpedo level. When pharmacist Donald Wright married into thebusiness in 1953, even he probably could not have foreseen that hewould continue this tradition of innovation, patenting the firstpermanently embedded single-bubble vial, an innovation that wouldforever change the way levels were built, and later introducing themagnetic level, the top-reading level, the first all-plastic level,and the grade lines on bubble levels for reading pitch angles.
Empire now holds 30 patents and claims more improvements to this simple yet essential tool than any other manufacturer.
Today Empire Level is the leading designer and producer of levels, squares, layout tools and caution tape in the United States with dominant market share in the retail, contractor supply, and ''Do-It-Yourself'' markets.
