INDUSTRY LEADER
Established more than 50 years ago, Michigan Seat Company remains the industry leader by being responsive to our customers' needs, and unrelenting in our pursuit of excellence in seamless, molded foam-in-place seating.

Main Production Facility

MADE IN THE USA
Michigan Seat's vac-form production is handled from concept to design finished product in our 220,000 square foot manufacturing facility. The polyurethane foam, which is poured into each seat, is custom blended in our facility to assure cost and quality control. Our suspension seat division is housed in a nearby 60,000 square foot facility.

Requests for modifications, as well as new prototypes, are expertly handled by our designers and engineers who are proficient in CAD-CAM. Michigan Seat has an on-site Quality Control Lab equipped to test seats for accelerated weathering, extreme temperatures, salt spray, impact, vibration and more, in accordance with ASTM, ISO, and SAE standards. With skilled workers and state-of-the-art machines and robotics, our assembly operation is efficient, yet extremely flexible. A variety of seat designs can be molded, filled and assembled along the same assembly line on the same day. Every state of manufacturing is completed in our plant. This translates into faster production and delivery.

In a market where variety and custom looks are increasingly in demand, this flexibility is vital to the success of our clients as well as to the continued success of Michigan Seat Company.

Suspension Seat Facility

PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE
Toward the end of World War II, Michigan Seat Company (then called the Jackson Canvas Company) entered the seat market when a large manufacturer of lawn and garden tractors needed a seat cover. Although the business did not produce complete seats, we met the initial request with the best solution at the time, a canvas slip-on cover. But then, just as now, the challenge was enough to bring about the pursuit of a better , more imaginative response.

When the technology for "vacuum form foam-in-place vinyl" evolved in the 1960's, Michigan Seat was one of the first companies to create a successful product with it - our seamless molded foam seat.

Michigan Seat Company continues to succeed as a viable competitor in an ever-changing industry. By meeting the demands of a new marketplace and exceeding the desires of a satisfied customer base, we have maintained the financial strength to stay at the forefront of emerging needs. Our worldwide industry success has given us an edge in the logistics of manufacturing and exporting to the highest standards.

Together, these companies continue to generate innovative answers to emerging needs and an unwavering commitment to the future.
