Dramm Turns 75

The Dramm Corp. is celebrating its milestone 75th anniversary.

In 1941, Manitowoc florist John G. Dramm designed a product that was to become the cornerstone of the Dramm Corp. The 400 Water Breaker Nozzle is a watering nozzle with 400 tiny holes that turns high velocity water into a soft-flowing shower that is gentle on plants.

Today the company has expanded into four business segments: Retail, Fertilizer, Commercial and DRAMMwater. Dramm introduced the Pulsfog and Autofog for chemical applications and improved the automatic irrigation systems of dribble tube and compensated irrigation systems to promote even watering and reducing overall water use, according to the company.

“My father’s vision, conservativeness and wherewithal are the formula that has enabled the business to be where it is today. His role paired with a group of really good, dedicated employees is what has contributed to the success of The Dramm Corporation,” said Heidi Dramm Becker, director of corporate relations. “Our family sincerely thanks all of our customers, supporters, and employees.”
