Optical instruments have been a Seiler family tradition since 1913 when company founder Eric H. Seiler entered the ZEISS School of Fine Optics in Jena, Germany. After earning a Master’s degree in Fine Optics, Eric H. Seiler brought his craft to the United States where he and his wife, Dora L. Seiler, started Seiler Instrument and Manufacturing Company in 1945. With Eric H. Seiler’s knowledge of optics and his son Eric P. Seiler’s knowledge of business management, the company flourished.

Eric H. Seiler’s appreciation of fine craftsmanship and pride in his work contributed to our philosophy of quality and customer service, a legacy he passed on to his son, current chairman of the board, Eric P. Seiler, and his grandchildren, CEO Rick Seiler, Executive Vice-President, Tom Seiler, and Compliance Director, Louise Seiler Schaper.

Eric H. Seiler established Seiler Instrument to manufacture and repair surveying equipment. With the help of four generations of Seiler family members, the company has grown from a small operation into a multifaceted 5 division thriving business: Seiler Manufacturing, Seiler Geospatial, Seiler Design Solutions, Seiler Precision Microscopes, and Seiler Planetarium.

Seiler stays current with new technologies by adding sophisticated tools and machines every year. Although computer numerical controlled (CNC) machines have replaced manually operated machines, there is still no replacement for old-world craftsmanship, a necessary attribute

of every instrument manufactured or sold by Seiler Instrument. Technology may change, but one thing continues to endure—Seiler’s dedication to excellence and customer service, a philosophy that breeds customer satisfaction.

Seiler Instrument is headquartered in Saint Louis, Missouri with branch offices in Kansas City, Chicago, Indianapolis, Milwaukee, and Omaha.
