Mighty Hook's commitment to teamwork and their core values never wavers, as reflected in their fast and comprehensive response to the pandemic. In the spring of 2020, Mighty Hook immediately adapted an area of their factory to make face shields for medical personal and first responders. With an eye on the safety of their employees and clients, they also have revamped many of their processes to accommodate virtual meetings and incorporate more automation. Those examples demonstrate Mighty Hook's dedication to continual innovation, a dedication that is also shown by patented innovations such as their Angle Pivot Technology and Custom Rotational Devices, both of which bring new efficiencies to production lines. Those products, like everything Mighty Hook manufactures, are proudly made in the USA.
From personal customization to service, from patented products to selection, from employee safety to value, it all comes together with Mighty Hook.
