LCII

Lci Industries

A maker of components for recreational vehicles, boats, and manufactured homes, operating through its Lippert brand — its leveling and slide-out systems, awnings, windows, and furniture are found in many RVs. It began in 1956 in Elkhart, Indiana, when Larry Lippert and Don Baldwin founded B&L Industries to make galvanized mobile home roofing called "Duratop"; Baldwin sold his stake a year later, and the parent company later took the name LCI Industries. Today Lippert is the world's largest supplier of trailer chassis.
