News from A.R.E. Accessories and Rigi Industries:
MASSILLON, Ohio - A.R.E. Accessories, a leading truck cap and fiberglass tonneau cover manufacturer, has entered into a joint marketing partnership with LED light technology experts Rigid Industries. This arrangement will provide both companies with opportunities to offer new and innovative products to A.R.E.'s consumer and commercial truck cap and tonneau cover audiences. The first product offering is a Rigid E-Series LED Light Bar available as optional equipment on A.R.E. fiberglass MX Series truck caps, which are available for most current model year pickup trucks in all cab and bed configurations. The MX Series cap sports an aerodynamic raised roof design that provides extra headroom and storage capacity, and has a full walk-in door option for easy rear access. The light bar will be factory installed on new caps, and can also be easily retrofitted to any existing A.R.E. MX Series truck cap.
A.R.E. and Rigid's partnership grew out of both companies working together on a number of notable project truck builds, including the most recent award-winning vehicle, a 2015 Ford F-150 Extreme Sport project truck, which received a Ford Project Excellence Award and a Mothers Choice Award at the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show in November.
A.R.E. plans to incorporate Rigid's lighting technology into a number of new products, adding style to the company's well-designed fiberglass tonneau covers and providing functional work use lighting for the Deluxe Commercial Unit Series of commercial truck caps. According to Todd Hoffman, A.R.E. president and CEO, "There is a logical synergy between our companies, and we are proud to be able to offer Rigid's quality lighting solutions to enhance the A.R.E. user experience."
