For over four decades, S&B has been setting the standard for precision engineering and manufacturing excellence in the automotive aftermarket industry. What began as a core competency in building high-performance filters has evolved into a vertically integrated operation that brings together in-house design, engineering, and state-of-the-art manufacturing capabilities. Today, S&B not only remains a trusted leader in performance filtration, but its ever-expanding engineering and manufacturing capabilities have allowed it to branch into new automotive aftermarket product categories such as cold air intakes, body mounts, intercooler pipes, suspension kits, and much more.
In-House Manufacturing: From Concept to Completion
At S&B, innovation starts in-house. Our engineering team combines deep automotive knowledge with advanced design tools and comprehensive laboratory testing to create innovative products that outperform expectations. Every project begins with a focus on performance, and our tight integration between design and manufacturing ensures seamless execution. This hands-on approach allows us to move faster, maintain tighter tolerances, and uphold the highest standards of quality control.
Rotomold Plastics: Durable, Precision-Crafted Components
Rotational molding (rotomolding) is one of S&B’s key capabilities. This process allows us to produce high-strength plastic components in countless shapes and sizes with precision and consistency at large volumes. From high performance cold air intake systems to extended range fuel tanks, rotomold plastics provide lightweight yet robust solutions that stand up to the toughest conditions and are integral in a wide variety of product applications.
Metal Fabrication: Strength and Performance Built In
Our advanced metal fabrication facilities allow us to craft precision parts such as intercooler pipes, intake elbows and suspension components that combine strength with performance. From laser-cutting to forming and welding, S&B’s expertise ensures that every metal component is engineered to exact specifications. This capability supports the creation of components that outperform and outlast stock parts.
World-Class Filtration Manufacturing
Filtration has always been at the core of S&B’s legacy. Our aftermarket filters are trusted by enthusiasts and professionals alike for delivering increased airflow without sacrificing protection. By controlling every step of the process—from media selection to pleating and assembly—we guarantee that each S&B filter meets our uncompromising standards. This mastery of filtration continues to be the foundation of S&B’s reputation for excellence.
Expanding Horizons: From Automotive to Entirely New Products
S&B’s relentless pursuit of excellence in engineering and manufacturing has not only paved the way for growth within the automotive aftermarket industry, but also into new industries:
Cold Creek Tubs - Cold Water Therapy Equipment
By applying our expertise in plastics, precision engineering and fabrication, S&B launched Cold Creek Tubs, delivering cold plunge solutions designed for durability, sleek style, and ease of use—all at an unbeatable price point. Athletes and wellness enthusiasts now benefit from cold plunge tubs built to the same exacting manufacturing standards that define every S&B product.
S&B Evaps - Evaporative Cooling Systems
Our expansion into evaporative coolers came from firsthand experience. For many years, we purchased and used evaporative cooling units in our own manufacturing and distribution facilities. Recognizing their shortcomings, we set out to make them better, stronger, and more affordable. With our in-house rotomold manufacturing capabilities and innovative team of engineers, S&B launched S&B Evaps to deliver a new standard in evaporative cooling—engineered to outperform and outlast anything on the market.
The Future of S&B
From plastics, metal fabrication and filtration expertise, S&B’s vertically integrated capabilities give us the power to innovate without limits. Our excellence in manufacturing has not only made us a leader in the automotive aftermarket but has also enabled us to successfully expand into entirely new industries with Cold Creek Tubs and S&B Evaps. At S&B, we don’t just manufacture products—we engineer solutions that raise the bar across every market we enter.
