Loyalty, Trust, Adaptiveness, Hardworking, & Dedication

Manufacture greatness within our employees to positively impact our families, communities, and customers.

Bold solutions. Proven performance. Every step of the way.

At Caster Concepts, we don’t just make casters—we engineer solutions. When off-the-shelf products fail, we step up with custom-built, precision-engineered casters that tackle the toughest material handling challenges head-on. Our application expertise and relentless focus on quality mean you get exactly what you need, delivered on time, every time. We’re not here to sell you products—we’re here to solve problems, exceed expectations, and build partnerships that last.

Your Specs. Your Schedule.

Speed drives our Quick Response Manufacturing, distinguishing us from the competition. Our streamlined end-to-end process ensures efficiency at every step. Our engineering team turns concepts into designs within 24 hours, enabling our quoting team to provide a comprehensive quote in 48 hours. Upon approval, manufacturing begins immediately, with orders often completed in just 5 days. Our shipping team then ensures your custom casters are out the door within 10 days, reducing lead times and running your operations smoothly.

Caster Concepts diversity of products and services allows us to meet almost any manufacturing need, from custom machining and laser applications to wheels, casters, and fabrication. As North America’s top designer and manufacturer of heavy-duty industrial casters, we don’t just move weight—We Move Industries.

Caster Cares™

Based on the beliefs of founder Richard H. Dobbins, Caster Concepts doesn’t limit itself to the products and services we provide. We’re a company that believes in giving back to the community where we are based and where our employees live. Caster Cares, the social impact investing portion of Caster Concepts Inc. works with other civic groups in its hometown of Albion, MI, and beyond, to improve many facets of the Albion Community where we work and all the communities that our employees reside.

Caster Cares supports education through the INNOVATION Hub in downtown Albion, economic growth through programs designed to help the region’s small business community, and the people of Albion through participation in food drives, toy drives, and other civic activities.

Albion is a city on the move and Caster Cares is involved in all aspects of its rebirth and renewal. For more information on Caster Cares and its charitable initiatives, follow us at www.castercares.com.

We Build Trust Through: On Time Delivery

When we give our word on delivery, we are committed to doing everything within our control to meet our promise. If situations occur, that are beyond our control, we immediately communicate the issues to the customer and re-set their expectations.
