Company Philosophy
Samson Equipment's philosophy is derived from its roots. When Dave Schroeder was beginning his coaching
career in the early 1970's one of his basic foundations of conditioning was weight training. He was
coaching at the High School level so funds for purchasing equipment were very limited, yearly budgets
were tight. He began planning a weight room and decided to purchase equipment to fill the room so that by
year five his room would be complete. He began his purchases with his limited budget but found that by
year three the equipment he purchased in year one was already breaking and was in need of repair or replacement.
He also had problems getting equipment repaired and sustained long periods of down time waiting for repairs to
be completed. This interfered with his team training. He could not fulfill his five year plan to equip his room
due to the poor quality of weight training equipment available on the market at the time. He saw a dire need for
heavy duty and biomechanically sound weight training equipment designed specifically for the school market.
Samson's philosophy is to manufacture the best heavy duty, industrial strength, affordable weight training equipment with
the best warranty on the market. We use only the best materials in our construction as shown on our website (see "Samson Difference").
Since we are customer oriented we strive to design our equipment to meet the customers changing needs which includes custom
designs. We are a one stop shop company that will fulfill the customers needs from facility design to equipment installation on both
large and small scale. Samson's customer service is outstanding with little or no equipment down time. We always treat our
customers with professionalism and fairness. Our customers always trust and rely on Samson to get the job done right.
