Curt proudly continues manufacturing operations in USA

USA Manufacturer delivers high quality, first-to-market and environmentally-friendly hitches.

Curt Manufacturing, a leading manufacturer and marketer of top-quality towing products, is known to stand for excellence in their products and their people. Because of the importance placed on this, they have continued to focus on manufacturing in the USA. The company's complete line of custom fit receiver hitches and t-connector wiring harnesses, along with many towing accessories are made in the USA. 

Curt continues to develop enhanced, first-to-market products for the customer. The receiver hitch line is designed, manufactured, labeled and shipped at their manufacturing headquarters in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Curt has application coverage for nearly any vehicle on the road today.

The company has recently taken commendable steps to further improve their already high-quality receiver hitch finish with a new, environmentally-friendly Aquence coat (A-coat) technology.  In 2010, Aquence won the Automotive News Pace Award for its environmental benefits, as the technology can reduce a company's production footprint by up to 40 percent versus the more common E-coat process that many manufacturers use. With the use of A-coat, co-cured with Curt's powder coat finish, the company offers the most corrosion resistant aftermarket hitch available.

"American-made stands for quality products and first-to-market applications. We want to continue creating job opportunities right here in the USA," says Travis Machler, Product and Channel Marketing Manager at Curt. At the company's Eau Claire, Wis. manufacturing facility, they employ over 400 highly skilled, trained associates who take great pride in the quality of products they make. With 11 distribution centers across USA and Canada, Curt will continue to grow and support employment right here in America.
