Manufacturing happens here. Everything we manufacture: bumpers, sliders, armor, MOLLE panels, roof racks, storage systems, and more; starts on our own shop floor in Kalamazoo, Michigan, not overseas and not through a contract manufacturer. We design it, bend it, weld it, and finish it right here in our facility. We source US material and hardware wherever we can for the rest of what goes into our products. When we can't, we go find whoever does it best, wherever they are.

We also believe manufacturing here means paying fairly here. Keeping fabrication in-house means we can pay the people building your gear a fair, living wage. We offer them and their families health care and a 401k, because building a career here should mean building a life here too. It also means keeping the craft alive; every welder, fabricator, painter, and machinist on our floor is a tradesperson we're investing in, and every part that leaves our shop is proof that skilled manufacturing still has a home in America.
