The Moss Commitment
We’re committed to outstanding service, world class products, continuous improvement, sustainability and a positive work environment.
We understand – the Experience is everything – the experience attendees recognize visiting our installations and the experience our customers value in a collaborative partnership. We strive to provide a “total customer solution” that includes the industry’s best products and activations consistently delivered on time, to the right location, every time. We believe that delivering exceptional value to our customers makes it possible to provide excellent returns to our employees, communities, and shareholders.
We believe that the natural world is the most valuable legacy we can leave for future generations. Doing business sustainably means we consider the environment when making supply chain and manufacturing decisions. We actively reduce, recycle, reuse and take action to improve the quality of the environment.
The Moss workplace is a place for growth, where everyone can both teach and learn. Here, we value a positive work environment, embrace diversity, and support equal opportunity for individual growth. Our commitment to community is a principle of how we do business.
If this sounds like the kind of company you would like to be part of, see current jobs. If this sounds like the kind of company you would like to do business with, contact us.
Our headquarters and primary domestic manufacturing facility is located in Franklin Park, Illinois, with an additional domestic manufacturing site in Eugene, Oregon. Internationally, we operate manufacturing locations in Lennestadt, Germany; Poznań, Poland; and Saint Neots, United Kingdom.
OUR STORY
1955
FABRIC INNOVATION
Our history begins with a 20th-century visionary: Bill Moss. An artist and outdoors-man who was passionate about industrial design and “tensioned fabric.” Bill designed and patented the first “pop-up” tent in 1955.
1983
SHOW STOPPER
We brought our expertise of curvilinear designs in lightweight fabric and frame to the Outdoor Retailer Show as a backdrop for our products, causing a stir in the industry as exhibitors recognized the advantages of a lightning-fast assemble and dismantle fabric structure solution.
2002
ONWARD AND UPWARD
A passion for innovation continued to move us ahead. We increased our manufacturing capabilities by acquiring Exhibit Architecture in 2002, located just outside of Chicago, and in 2006 opened our first rental depot in Las Vegas.
