About descocorp.com
DESCO created this website to perform three functions:
1. To provide timely news, product information, and technical support to our dealers and customers.
2. To act in a support role for our e-commerce website divedesco.com. The limits of that site are addressed here by providing more in depth product and pricing information. The current DESCO commercial and specialty pricelists, and product manuals are available for download on the DOWNLOADS page.
3. To provide information and education about commercial diving and our company
to the general public. Topics include DESCO company and product history, diving news, and diving history & technology.
