Palmer Hamilton, LLC located in Elkhorn, Wisconsin, was formed in 2004 to focus on the ever-changing needs of school cafeteria systems. Our commitment is to provide innovative product solutions in today's cafeteria environments. The Hamilton cafeteria table line has a long history dating back to 1946 when a janitor named Reynold Erickson puzzled over the problem of using his school's gymnasium for both a gym and lunchroom. Working with simple boards and pipe, he created a crude first model of the mobile table with attached benches that has since revolutionized lunchroom seating. Bearing his name, "Erickson", then "Hamilton" and now "Palmer Hamilton", the tables today are a familiar scene in thousands of schools across the country. From that basic idea the product line of cafeteria tables has expanded to include a number of different designs and styles to meet individual school needs. Our newest products include food court systems and customized laminated school logos. Wall-mounted tables and benches convert a gymnasium to a lunchroom with speed and minimal effort. Mobile folding tables move quickly from compact storage to setup. The one-fold shaped tables can be used to create a variety of settings. As the styles have evolved, so have the features. The majority of our mobile tables are assembled with compression springs, making the opening and closing of the tables less demanding. The Elkhorn operation distributes these tables into the K-12 market through an expansive network of dealers and agents throughout the country.
