Linc Energy Systems: 30+ Years of Natural Gas Excellence

Since our modest start in 1990, Linc Energy Systems has steadily evolved into a prominent distributor and contractor in the natural gas industry. Our journey, which began with Susan Bender covering the Rocky Mountain States as a manufacturers’ representative for a few esteemed companies, is a testament to our steadfast commitment to meeting our customers’ needs, ensuring their satisfaction and success.

Our Story

Under Bender’s leadership, we quickly attracted new strategic partners, and our company flourished. Today, Linc Energy Systems is acknowledged as a top distributor for premium lines such as BelGas, GPL Odorizers, Honeywell Mercury Instruments, Honeywell Elster, Honeywell Process Solutions, IMAC Systems, and Itron. These strategic partnerships and others ensure we can provide our customers with the best products and services, giving them a sense of security and confidence in our network.

Our core values have guided our success and growth:

Linc Energy Systems has gained recognition as an award-winning contractor for its expertise in installing and maintaining commercial and industrial electronic metering equipment. Under Jeffrey Cox’s skilled project management, the utility contractor division expanded in the early years. Today, this division specializes in odorization and is in a strategic alliance with GPL Odorizers as a nationwide authorized service provider and leading distributor.

Susan Bender led the company from its humble beginnings in a condo office to our 17,000-plus SF headquarters. The company and Bender have been honored with multiple awards from the Denver Business Journal, ColoradoBiz Magazine, Colorado Titans, Xcel Energy (PSCCo), NWBOC, Honeywell, and Sage Metering. Bender relinquished her presidency to Jeffrey Cox in January 2023. However, she remained active as the company’s CEO until she succumbed to a longstanding health challenge in November 2023.

Jeffrey Cox and Preston Marcoux now lead the company, with the support of two additional members of its management team, Garrett Cox and Spencer Toft. The new leadership continues Susan Bender’s legacy and builds on the company’s strong foundation.
