We Thermoform the Parts
That Go Into What We Sell.
Floe Thermoforming's parent company FLOE International manufactures docks, boat lifts, trailers, and Varatti Boats using the same integrated thermoforming, fabrication, machining, and assembly capabilities offered to OEM customers. Vertical integration isn't a slogan here, it's the operating model, proven on products FLOE engineers, builds, warranties, and sells itself.
Four product lines, built on our own floor
These aren't case studies under NDA, they're FLOE's own products, in market, built with the same capabilities we sell.
Roll-In Docks
Built in Hoyt Lakes, MN, thermoformed and fabricated components in a harsh-water product.
Boat Lifts
Built in McGregor West, structural and cosmetic parts that live outdoors year-round.
Trailers
Built in McGregor East alongside the thermoforming floor, load-bearing utility products.
Varatti Boats
Built in Cambridge, thermoformed decks, consoles, and components in a finished boat.
Why vertical integration matters for your program
A supplier that only makes parts for other people is guessing at what production reality looks like. Floe Thermoforming lives it, our parts go into products we engineer, build, warranty, and sell.
That means the people quoting your OEM part have built market-tested products with the exact same forming, fabrication, machining, and assembly stack, in harsh environments, at production scale, for decades.
Proven where it counts
Questions OEM engineers ask
How is Floe Thermoforming vertically integrated?
Floe Thermoforming's parent, FLOE International, builds and sells its own docks, boat lifts, trailers, and Varatti Boats using the same thermoforming, fabrication, machining, and assembly capabilities offered to OEM customers, so the integration is proven on products FLOE ships itself.
What products does FLOE International manufacture in-house?
Roll-In Docks (Hoyt Lakes, MN), Boat Lifts (McGregor West), Trailers (McGregor East), and Varatti Boats (Cambridge), across four Minnesota plants with 152 associates.
Why does vertical integration matter to an OEM buyer?
It means the supplier quoting your part has built and warrantied market-tested products with the same capability stack, at production scale, in harsh environments, so the production reality behind your quote is real, not theoretical.
