News release from Indiana Governor Mike Braun’s office:<\/p>\n

Governor Braun Grows Manufacturing Jobs with Med-Mizer\u2019s Expansion in Batesville<\/strong><\/p>\n

Batesville, Indiana (October 13, 2026) \u2013 Indiana Governor Mike Braun today announced Med-Mizer, an Indiana-founded medical device company and defense contractor, will expand its operations in Batesville, creating up to 73 new high-wage jobs in the coming years.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday is a great day for Med-Mizer and for the state as we celebrate the growth of an Indiana-based, Veteran-founded small business that is advancing medical solutions and supporting the country\u2019s defense industry,\u201d said Gov. Braun. \u201cMed-Mizer\u2019s commitment to grow and create new, high-wage jobs here in Indiana is made possible by our pro-growth business climate and our skilled workforce.\u201d<\/p>\n

Med-Mizer will invest $9 million to increase production at its existing 40,000-square-foot facility at 80 Commerce Dr. in Batesville, purchasing new machinery and equipment and retrofitting the space to accommodate growth and a second shift. The expansion will enable the company to grow its production of innovative hospital beds and safe patient handling solutions, which serve patients and caregivers across hospitals, hospice, long-term care, rehabilitation facilities and home care settings.<\/p>\n

The expansion will also support Med-Mizer\u2019s fulfillment of a recently awarded five-year, sole-source contract with the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) through its partner, DiSorb Systems, to provide at-home hospital beds, support surfaces and related accessories to Veterans nationwide. Med-Mizer\u2019s growth bolsters Indiana\u2019s growing defense ecosystem that has increased defense contracts by 24% since 2020.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re incredibly proud that Med-Mizer\u2019s continued growth is happening right here in Batesville, where our company was founded more than 20 years ago,\u201d said Brian Roth, CEO of Med-Mizer. \u201cThis investment marks a transformational chapter in our company\u2019s history, significantly expanding our American manufacturing capabilities, creating meaningful career opportunities for Hoosiers, and strengthening our ability to serve Veterans and healthcare providers across the country. As a Veteran-founded company, being entrusted to provide at-home hospital beds and support surfaces nationwide to Veterans is especially meaningful to us. We\u2019re excited about what this growth means for our employees, our community, and the Veterans and caregivers we have the privilege to serve.\u201d<\/p>\n

Med-Mizer\u2019s expansion is expected to more than double its current workforce. The company has already started hiring for positions in manufacturing, engineering, technical support, quality, shipping and customer service, with additional opportunities anticipated as production continues to increase. New positions are expected to offer average wages 134% of the Ripley County average.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnder the Governor\u2019s leadership, we\u2019re focused on creating more opportunities for Hoosiers and this expansion from Med-Mizer will do just that,\u201d said Indiana Secretary of Commerce Chuck Goodrich. \u201cThis is a company that could grow anywhere, but they are choosing to invest in Indiana, invest in our talent and invest in the Batesville community. Med-Mizer\u2019s growth will positively impact Hoosiers and our economy for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

Med-Mizer has been operating in Batesville since its founding in 2003. The company has been a driving force in mobility innovation for the healthcare community for more than 20 years, with a focus on helping patients and caregivers thrive. Med-Mizer’s innovative hospital beds and safe patient handling solutions are used in thousands of homes, hospitals and care facilities nationwide, helping improve patient comfort, safety, mobility and independence while supporting the caregivers who serve them.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
