50 years ago, Torklift started as a small welding shop in Kent, Washington with one simple goal: build products that make adventure better.
Today, that same original shop is still part of the journey, now serving as the Research & Development home for EcoHitch. Every EcoHitch is engineered, designed, and developed right there, where the company first began.
In 2011, EcoHitch launched with a different approach to towing: cleaner designs, eco-conscious manufacturing, and adventure-ready hitches built to fit modern vehicles without compromising the look people love.
Now, officially celebrating 50 years, we’re incredibly grateful for every customer, employee, dealer, and adventurer who has been part of the story.
From the first weld in Kent to adventures happening all across the country today, thank you for being part of it.
Here’s to the next 50 years of road trips, trailheads, campgrounds, bike rides, and spontaneous detours.
