History

Our Company Values

Founded in 1972

After a lengthy career as a Mechanical Engineer and Hospital Administrator for Kaiser San Diego, John Pryor took his acquired knowledge and founded Pryor Products in 1972. As Intravenous therapy was rapidly advancing Pryor stayed ahead of the curve with several successful product implementations to serve the IV market and is now the leading manufacturer of IV stands, medical device carts, and rapid mounting technologies for medical instrumentation worldwide. Our customers include dozens of medical equipment manufacturers and thousands of hospitals and other healthcare providers worldwide. Our products enjoy a reputation for the highest quality and innovation at a fair price. Like the customers we serve, Pryor Products has a passion for excellence.

Over the years we have developed an array of healthcare product lines in support of our customer's evolving clinical needs - with many choices within each line. They include dozens of different poles, stands, and mounting systems for IV-related equipment (such as large volume infusion pumps, syringe pumps and specialty pumps). Pryor has also developed unique rolling carts for specific medical instrumentation (such as large and small vital signs monitors, ventilators, compressors, wireless computers), patented stand components that add functionality to any Pryor stand. In addition, Pryor developed and proudly manufactures the renowned patented speed clamp for rapid mounting of medical instrumentation - revolutionizing medical device mounting.

Today, we offer an unsurpassed variety of styles and configurations of IV and instrument stands and productivity-enhancing mounting solutions.
