    “Johnson Controls History

    125 years of innovation

    In 1885, Warren Johnson inspired the future, launching an industry focused on energy efficiency and a company poised to explore new ideas and enter new fields. This foundation has ignited the customer-focused innovation of thousands of employees for more than 125 years. “

    Warren S. Johnson, a professor that received a patent for the first electric room thermostat, and a group of Milwaukee investors led by William Plankinton incorporated the Johnson Electric Service Company in 1885 to manufacture, install and service automatic temperature regulation systems for buildings.

    After Johnson’s death in 1911, the company decided to focus on its temperature control business for nonresidential buildings.

    The company was renamed Johnson Controls in 1974.

    In January 2016, Johnson Controls merged with Tyco International to create a new company called Johnson Controls International plc.
