Family, Legacy, and Craftsmanship: Why Working with Reinert Manufacturing Feels Personal

The start of the year is a natural time to reflect on the values that matter most—connection, trust, and dedication. At Reinert Manufacturing, those principles are at the heart of everything we do. As a family-owned and operated business for 50 years, we take pride in offering more than just quality concrete pumps. We provide personalized service built on a foundation of expertise, fairness, and the legacy of our founder, Jerry Reinert.

A Family Legacy Rooted in Hard Work

Reinert Manufacturing’s story begins with Jerry Reinert, a man whose career was defined by determination and innovation. Jerry started out as a cement mason apprentice before being called to serve in the U.S. Army during the Korean War. After returning home, he launched his own cement finishing company and gained hands-on experience with trailer-mounted concrete pumps. That experience sparked an idea—he could make better pumps.

In 1970, Jerry built his first prototype concrete pump, laying the foundation for Reinert Manufacturing. Today, that legacy lives on through his family. His daughters Shelley and Lisa, along with Shelley’s husband, Dick, now run the company, continuing Jerry’s mission of producing high-quality, user-friendly concrete pumps and keeping the business firmly rooted in family values.
