What KEWAUNEE SCIENTIFIC CORP does
In the company’s own words
Kewaunee Scientific Corporation (NASDAQ: KEQU) is a recognized leader in the design, manufacture, and installation of laboratory, healthcare, and technical furniture and infrastructure products. The company was founded in 1906 and has been publicly traded since 1968. Its website is www.kewaunee.com.
The company's core product portfolio includes steel and wood casework, fume hoods, adaptable modular systems, moveable workstations, stand-alone benches, biological safety cabinets, and epoxy resin work surfaces and sinks. In November 2024, Kewaunee completed the acquisition of Nu Aire, Inc., a manufacturer of biological safety cabinets, CO2 incubators, ultralow freezers, animal handling equipment, pharmacy compounding isolators, and related laboratory products. This acquisition significantly expanded the company's capabilities and product offerings, allowing it to serve a broader range of laboratory and healthcare customers.
The company operates through two reportable segments: the Lab Products Group, which includes operations in Statesville, North Carolina and the Nu Aire subsidiary in Plymouth, Minnesota, and the International segment, consisting of foreign subsidiaries. During fiscal year 2026, approximately 28 percent of revenues were derived from international sales.
Kewaunee maintains manufacturing facilities in Statesville and Long Lake, Minnesota, as well as in Bangalore, India. The company employs 755 domestic employees and 476 international employees as of April 30, 2026. Sales offices are located in the United States, Spain, India, Saudi Arabia, and Singapore. Products are sold primarily to pharmaceutical, biotechnology, industrial, chemical and commercial research laboratories, educational institutions, healthcare institutions, governmental entities, and manufacturing facilities through direct customer relationships, dealers, subsidiaries, and a national distributor.
The company's business model involves designing and manufacturing customized products for building construction projects, often with extended delivery timelines. Prices are typically quoted on a firm basis, requiring the company to manage material and labor cost increases between quotation and delivery. The order backlog at April 30, 2026 was $165.9 million, with an estimated 90 percent expected to ship during fiscal year 2027.
