Reinke Manufacturing, global specialist in irrigation systems, acquires Scott Specialties in Belleville, KS USA, following the orthopedic soft goods manufacturer’s decision to close. Hence, Reinke is expanding operations and extending new employment opportunities to Scott s’ workforce within its growing mechanized irrigation division.

“As a family-owned company, we recognize the value of skilled craftsmanship and hard work,” said Chris Roth, president of Reinke Manufacturing. “The talented team at Scott Specialties has long been a pillar of the community. We’re proud to welcome them into the Reinke family and provide new career paths in irrigation technology while expanding our operational footprint in Kansas to support growers globally with our solutions.”

The acquisition establishes a second operational center in Belleville, complementing Reinke’s existing facility there. This expansion reflects Reinke’s ongoing commitment to advancing agricultural water efficiency, investing in rural communities, and fueling economic development. Former Scott Specialties employees will have the opportunity to transition into precision irrigation manufacturing roles at Reinke.
