Braun Medical Inc., with U.S. headquarters at 824 12th Avenue in Bethlehem, is a leader in infusion therapy and pain management — developing, manufacturing, and marketing IV fluids, infusion pumps, vascular access systems, pharmacy compounding, and regional anesthesia products. The company employs more than 8,500 people across 30-plus North American locations and is part of a global enterprise of 64,000 employees in 64 countries.

The parent company traces to 1839, when it began as a pharmacy in Melsungen, Germany — still family-owned after nearly two centuries. U.S. operations in the Lehigh Valley launched in 1979. B. Braun Medical is part of the broader B. Braun Group of Companies in the United States, which includes B. Braun Interventional Systems, Aesculap, and CAPS. 

“B. Braun has had the privilege of being part of the Lehigh Valley community for nearly 40 years,” the company has stated. The company’s stated mission — “Providers are our purpose” — centers on helping healthcare providers improve patient satisfaction and outcomes. 

Braun Medical’s core commitment spans patient and clinician safety alongside environmental stewardship. The company states it is “committed to eliminating preventable treatment errors and enhancing patient, clinician and environmental safety” — a mandate shaping product development across its 47 years of Lehigh Valley operations.
