Company History
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 the idea for space
utilization products was born.
As World War II approached, Equipto retooled to produce various steel products needed for Allied efforts.
It was during this time that Equipto diversified its product line to meet the demand for other space-saving products.
John C. Dunham, Thomas' son, took over the business after World War II and continued to develop products
and expand the customer base beyond the automobile industry. In 1991, Thomas Dunham's grandson,
Tom Matyas, became President and CEO.
Today, Equipto's customers range from industrial clients such as Caterpillar and Boeing, retail clients using
display shelving like Mikasa and The Gap, to healthcare facilities such as Mt. Sinai-Chicago and DuPont
Medical Systems that utilize Equipto's filing products.
