Bernard Laboratories – Contract Manufacturing & Packaging Excellence Since 1948

Founded in 1948, Bernard Laboratories has grown into a global leader in turnkey contract manufacturing and packaging services for specialty formulas across multiple industries. What began with filling small glass perfume bottles has expanded into a full-scale operation specializing in toll blending, liquid and semi-solid filling, specialty bottle filling, tube filling, grease cartridge filling, and custom contract packaging solutions.

The company’s journey reflects decades of innovation and family leadership. After Boyd Piper, Sr. purchased the business in 1960, Bernard Laboratories continued to thrive in Cincinnati, moving locations to accommodate growth and expanding capabilities. Under the guidance of Boyd Piper, Jr. in 1984, the company broadened its reach, offering advanced blending and packaging services to clients worldwide. Today, Bernard Laboratories remains family-owned, led by Ryan Piper, representing the third generation of dedication to quality, service, and innovation.
