What OneHydraulics does

OneHydraulics, Inc. is a Houston, Texas-based, woman-owned industrial distributor and integrator of hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, and automation equipment, founded in 2016. The company operates a Shopify-powered e-commerce platform with an extensive catalog spanning more than 30 product categories, including accumulators, pumps, motors, hydraulic and pneumatic valves, filters, hoses, fittings, flanges, heat exchangers, reservoirs, manifolds, couplings, gauges, diagnostic tools, winches, radio remote controls, and pneumatic preparation equipment. OneHydraulics represents major industrial brands such as Argo Hytos, Continental (ContiTech), Hawe, Norgren, Stauff, Alfagomma, Nachi, Dynaset, and AKG, with factory/warehouse locations in Houston, Texas and Twinsburg, Ohio enabling same-day shipping on many in-stock items.

The business model rests on three revenue streams: one-time product sales through a self-serve e-commerce storefront, custom hydraulic system design and integration services targeted at OEMs and system integrators, and a wholesale program (Green Club) for qualified volume buyers. Pricing is unit-based and ranges from under $20 for consumables (thread sealants, test points) to roughly $3,800 for compact hydraulic power units, with free shipping on orders over $200, a $15 flat rate otherwise, and a 30-day return policy. The firm combines digital commerce with phone-based inside sales (281-941-2310) and live technical support from certified specialists, supplemented by an educational YouTube channel and a knowledge base aimed at top-of-funnel buyer education.

The customer base is organized into three primary segments: industrial equipment operators in manufacturing, construction, and agriculture that need maintenance, repair, and replacement parts; system integrators and OEMs requiring custom hydraulic system design and component sourcing; and in-house MRO teams needing fast, reliable access to consumables and replacement components. International shipping with multiple currency and country options is offered, though US-based operations remain the primary focus. Leadership comprises co-founder and CEO/President Chauntelle Baughman, co-founder Brett Holmes, and CFO/CTO Mark Baughman, with the woman-owned business designation providing an advantage in government and corporate procurement contexts.
