About Us
In 1950, Conrad Jobst founded JOBST in Toledo, Ohio. Born in Germany, Conrad was both a mechanical engineer and inventor. He applied his varied expertise and personal experience to the development of gradient compression garments, which relieve the symptoms of venous insufficiency.
Today, JOBST is an Essity-owned brand.
Garments with gradient compression have the greatest pressure at their base and reduce pressure as the compression garment goes up the arm or leg.
This helps encourage the movement of fluids, whether it's blood circulation or lymph fluid circulation.
