EQUIPTO has been a leader in the space utilization market for years. A consistently better product, outstanding customer service and an attitude that keeps clients coming back has made EQUIPTO what it is today. EQUIPTO’s philosophy is that they want to make it as simple as possible to do business with them.
It all began in 1907, when Thomas M. Dunham began developing motorcycle headlights and sidecars in Aurora, Illinois. With the increase in automobile production, motorcycle parts soon were not in such high demand, so EQUIPTO began producing body parts for Ford Motor Company’s Model T Chassis. As the relationship with the car industry flourished, Dunham began hearing other needs within the automotive industry. One car dealer needed heavy-duty shelving to store large, hefty car parts and theidea for space utilization products was born.
Today, EQUIPTO manufactures a vast variety of products: shelving & racks, modular cabinets, storage cabinets mobile aisles, platforms & mezzanines, stairways & crosswalks, workcenters & workbenches, carts, pallet racking, wire mesh products, golf bag storage, and military CONNEX & SATS systems.

Sinai-Chicago and DuPont Medical Systems that utilize EQUIPTO’s filing products.
