The Brewer Company

What The Brewer Company does

The Brewer Company, founded in 1947 and headquartered in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin, is a privately held medical device manufacturer specializing in exam tables, medical seating, and healthcare equipment. Its core product portfolio includes power exam tables (Access High-Low PLUS and FLEX High-Low PLUS featuring the proprietary EasyGlide Mobility System), fixed-height exam tables (Access 1000, Access Exam, Element Treatment), medical and dental seating (Millennium, Century, and Value Plus Series), the ECO Series LED Exam Light, and ISO 13485:2016-certified contract manufacturing services. The company holds proprietary technologies including the EasyGlide whisper-quiet mobility system, ComfortGrip ADA-recommended assist handles, and HybriGel foam technology for pressure ulcer prevention. With 90% of components manufactured in Wisconsin and an industry-leading 5-year warranty, the company emphasizes domestic manufacturing quality and regulatory compliance.

The Brewer Company generates revenue primarily through one-time hardware sales of medical exam tables and seating, supplemented by contract manufacturing services for OEM customers across healthcare, marine, dental, and optical industries since 1996. Its go-to-market is sales-led through authorized medical and dental distributors, complemented by direct sales representatives (Find a Rep locator), an e-commerce storefront for parts and accessories (shop.brewercompany.com), and a dedicated dental seating site (brewerseating.com). Pricing is quote-based with multi-year warranties (5 years on exam tables and seating, 3 years on procedure tables, 1 year on lighting). Customer segments include healthcare providers, dental professionals, optical practices, OEM manufacturers, and niche marine/mass transit operators. The company serves the U.S. and Canadian markets and operates an FDA-registered, ISO 13485:2016-certified manufacturing facility, with recent expansion signaled by the June 2025 acquisition of Komponents Laminated Products.
