Industrial pneumatic and fluid control valve manufacturer serving medical, automation, and test equipment markets
Humphrey Products manufactures precision pneumatic and fluid control valves—a 120+ year old, family-owned operation with 200+ employees in Kalamazoo. The tech stack (Solid Edge, Solidworks, IBM i, DB2, Power BI) reflects a traditional industrial manufacturing posture: CAD-heavy design workflows and legacy midrange database systems. Active projects span foundation product development, assembly process optimization, and European market expansion, while pain points cluster around high-mix production complexity and distributor channel performance—typical scaling challenges for a regional manufacturer entering new geographies.
Humphrey Products designs and manufactures pneumatic and fluid control solutions, including solenoid valves, proportional valves, and custom engineered systems. The company maintains a catalog of over 7,500 standard valve configurations and handles custom design work for applications in medical devices, life sciences, analytical instrumentation, factory automation, and test and measurement. ISO 9001:2015 certified, the company operates a vertically integrated design and manufacturing footprint in Michigan. Current growth vectors include new foundation product lines, internal process improvement (assembly, cost estimation, prototyping), and geographic expansion into European markets via channel partnerships.
