History

Established in 1998.

For two generations, the Laborde family has been a major player in the offshore oil and gas industry. In 1998, Tracy Laborde bought the company, formerly known as Star Power Services, which at the time was primarily a distributor of Yanmar engines.

Under his leadership and with his extensive experience in the commercial marine industry, Laborde expanded, crediting its deal with Mitsubishi as a landmark in company history. After a year of discussions and a trip to Japan, Mitsubishi agreed to a long-​term commitment with Laborde and a stable, mutually-​beneficial relationship was born.

Laborde Products now carries Mitsubishi, Yanmar, Hatz, FPT (Fiat Powertrain Technologies) and Steyr Motors engines for the marine and industrial markets. Laborde also builds stand-​alone products including diesel pumps and generators under its own brand, Diesel America and offers an array of other related equipment and accessories.
