Dometic is once again manufacturing and distributing awnings in Elkhart.
The manufacturer of RV appliances began producing the 9100 series of power awnings in May.
“Elkhart, Indiana, has always been the heart of our RV appliance business,” said Todd Seyfert, president segment land vehicle Americas, in a press release. “Dometic has always been committed to being a part of the industry, this move is just one of many ways we're showing an increased dedication to our customers, our employees, and the Elkhart community.”
Product production will increase to meet demand of local RV manufacturers.
“As we continue to focus on ‘mobile living made easy', the return of awning production and these added measures allow Dometic to ensure delivery performance to our trusted OEM, RV Dealer, and distributor partners,” Seyfert said. “We're happy to add one more manufacturing location closer to our customers in Indiana.”
Dometic ceased manufacturing at the Elkhart facility in 2022,” according to RV Pro. Offices and warehousing stayed open.
