Patton’s Inc., American owned and operated by the Patton family since 1945, began selling custom medical air packages to hospitals in 1980. For years we sold Quincy compressors to the local medical market. Knowing we had to expand our product line, we became a distributor for Powerex in 2003. For the next five years, we were their leading distributor for medical gas equipment.

Deciding to sell and service our own medical gas equipment nationwide, we created Patton’s Medical in 2008. This does not mean Patton’s Medical is the “new kid on the block.” We hired some of the best in the medical gas business with extensive backgrounds in sales, marketing, manufacturing and engineering. Within a short period of time, we were able to create a company and product line that is second to none in the industry. Although the influx of this new talent brought new ideas, products and direction to the company, our “old fashion” commitment to customer service is steadfast.

In order to provide the best equipment for the expanding medical market, we acquired collaborative developmental rights to sell Hitachi Bebicon and Scroll compressors. We knew these compressors had been used for over twenty years in the medical market and had proven to be extremely reliable. With this came the ability to sell parts and service for existing equipment that utilize the Hitachi pumps.

In addition to medical air compressors, we knew we had to offer medical vacuum. After extensive research of vacuum companies and vacuum pumps we chose Busch Vacuum pumps for their excellent reputation in the medical arena. We build multiplex vacuum packages utilizing oil-less rotary vane, lubricated rotary vane and oil-less rotary claw pumps.

Every successful medical gas company knows that selling just source equipment is not enough. In order to have a complete medical gas product offering, it must include pipeline and architectural products. We chose the best. We chose Amico. Actually, after seeing our business plan to expand across the U.S. they chose to partner with us. This full-fledged partnership allows us to have exclusive rights to sell Amico products in most parts of the country. Amico, founded in 1974, provides the most technologically advanced products in the marketplace at a very cost-effective price. Amico is ISO-13485:2003 approved. Their products are not only U.L. listed, they meet and exceed NFPA and CSA standards.

Today, premier medical air and vacuum equipment is manufactured in our 35,000 sq. ft. Charlotte facility.  Our products meet or exceed NFPA 99 and CSA standards in addition to being U.L. listed.  If our standard products do not exactly fit your requirements, we will work with you to develop special packages to comply with your particular specifications or applications.

While we strive to grow our business, we know the importance of customer relationships, business relationships and providing the best equipment to meet the customer’s needs. Our focus will continue to be on our customers. Lead by our product knowledge, experience and dedication to you, we will strive to provide the right equipment for any medical gas application that is specified by you.
