BRS Opens New Corporate Headquarters

Ballistic Recovery Systems, Inc. has accepted the keys to its new Corporate Headquarters building from the City of South St. Paul.

“The combined efforts of City staff, architect, construction firm, and BRS employees have produced a truly unique structure that will meet our needs for years to come”, said BRS CEO, Larry Williams as he joined South St. Paul Mayor Beth Baumann and other City, State of Minnesota, and Minnesota Congressional delegation staffers in the August 28th noontime Ribbon Cutting ceremony.

“We had outgrown our previous facility which served us well for over 28 years so definitely needed to find a structure (or build one in this case) that could accommodate the aggressive plans we have for new products and markets” he added.

The new BRS facility has 15,000 square feet of production area in addition to 6,000 sq feet of office and engineering design spaces. It is located just down the road from the previous facility and still on the grounds of the Fleming Field (South St. Paul) airport. BRS worked closely with all parties to design the type of building and layout they needed and entered into a long-term leasing agreement with the City of South St. Paul, who is the landlord and owner of record, of the facility.

Since 1981, BRS has delivered more than 29,000 parachute systems to aircraft owners worldwide, including over 3,500 systems on FAA-certificated aircraft such as the Cirrus Design SR20 and SR22 manufactured in Duluth, Minnesota. To date, BRS parachute recovery systems have been credited with saving the lives of 214 pilots and passengers.
