Innovation and quality are traditions that have kept Pelton & Crane at the forefront of the dental industry for over 108 year ... s. Pelton & Crane was founded by Dr. R.M. Pelton, a dentist who felt the need in his own practice for a furnace used to bake porcelain inlays. He called upon a friend, Mr. Crane, who was an electrical engineer, to help him with the design and construction. The new device worked well. Other dentists saw it, were impressed with it, and requested that they be permitted to buy one. These events led to the birth in 1900 of the Pelton & Crane Company in the basement of Dr. Pelton's home in Detroit. This little company grew to the point where it was necessary for Dr. Pelton and Mr. Crane to give up their respective professions and devote their full time to the business of Pelton & Crane. Dr. Pelton and Mr. Crane always insisted on the highest quality, as well as delivering relevant innovation to the dental industry. Early on, the company expanded their offering of dental equipment to include cabinet-based delivery systems and sterilizers. Gradually, the company grew to produce lights, chairs, and cabinetry. Today, Pelton & Crane offers a complete line of dental equipment. Today, 108 years after its inception, Pelton & Crane still maintains Dr. Pelton's dedication to quality and innovation. The company was proud to receive ISO 9000 Certification for Quality Systems in 1999. In addition, almost all of Pelton & Crane's products are CE approved. Today, Pelton & Crane, located on a 37 acre campus in Charlotte, NC, is America's fastest growing dental company. We offer a 5 year warranty on all of our chairs, stools and delivery systems-unsurpassed in the industry.
