The fourth-generation family-owned brand will commemorate its founding with an open house and factory tour at the brand’s headquarters in September
Visalia, Calif. (February 11, 2026) – Hellwig Products, a leading manufacturer of towing, hauling and performance suspension products, is celebrating its 80th anniversary this year. The milestone achievement also comes alongside fourth-generation CEO Melanie Hellwig-White’s first year as SEMA chairperson. Hellwig will mark its 80th anniversary with updated branding at various events throughout the year and will host an open house to celebrate its original incorporation date in September 1946.

Since its founding, Hellwig has manufactured OEM-plus-level sway bars and helper springs for a wide variety of American and foreign vehicles. The brand’s passion for providing customers with upgraded towing capabilities, comfort and safety in their SUVs and trucks has endured for more than four generations of ownership. Today, Hellwig continues to use American steel for all its products at its headquarters in Visalia, California.

“Over the last 80 years, the Hellwig family and staff have been proud to support millions of Americans who trust our products on the vehicles they use every day,” said Hellwig CEO and President Melanie Hellwig-White. “While many things have changed over the years, we’re excited to continue offering second-to-none American-made products for those who need the most out of their vehicle’s suspension.”

Hellwig Products will be celebrating its 80th anniversary with special branding throughout 2026 at various events across the country, including SEMA 2026. The brand also plans to host an open house and BBQ cookout at its headquarters in early September for those who want to tour the factory and gather to honor the longstanding brand’s legacy. Keep an eye on Hellwig’s social media channels for more information about the open house.
