Its headquarters is located in Shakopee, Minnesota, where they manufacture measurement instrumentation such as pressure, temperature, level, DP flow, and wireless, as well as analytical and detection instrumentation for gas analysis, liquid analysis, combustion measurement and flame and gas detection.

Rosemount Engineering was founded by Frank Werner, Robert Keppel, and Vernon Heath in the Minneapolis–Saint Paul area in 1956[1] with a focus on the aerospace industry, which was then growing rapidly under the expansion of the U.S. space program.

In 1966, the company diversified to the commercial processing industry and became known as Rosemount Inc. Rosemount's founders, Frank Werner and Vernon Heath, took up skiing in the 1950s, and decided to introduce a better ski boot.

The ski factory was sold to Bass Sports in 1968, but the Rosemount brand was used until it was purchased by Raichle in 1972.

Its 500,000-square-foot (46,000 m2) building was originally built for ADC Telecommunications, but was abandoned in 2001 prior to completion and had never been occupied.
