WEXCO Industries

What WEXCO Industries does

WEXCO Industries, Inc. is a US-based specialty manufacturer of complete windshield wiper systems and OEM wiper components for heavy-duty and specialty vehicles. Founded in 1991 and headquartered at 3 Barnet Road, Pine Brook, New Jersey, the company designs, engineers, and assembles motors, arms, blades, washer components, pivots, linkages, and hardware for trucks, buses, off-highway vehicles, commercial and recreational boats, recreational vehicles (RVs), agriculture equipment, and construction/minining machinery. Its engineering stack relies on FEA, CAD modeling, and wind flow analysis, with on-site lab validation testing to a minimum of 1,500,000 operating cycles per SAEJ198 and SAEJ942 standards, and ISO 9001:2015 certification under UL/DQS/ANAB accreditation.

The product portfolio is organized by vehicle platform: core wiper blade series (131, 132, 134, 136, 137, 70), motor assemblies (G4 Tandem Radial, G5 Overlapping Radial, Compact Drive, Dual Drive), washer components (reservoirs, fittings, tubing), and complete marine and RV sub-systems with platform-specific materials such as 304 stainless steel marine blades. The company has more recently extended into adjacent RV components via a Lippert / KWIKEE Replacement Step Actuator.

WEXCO operates a multi-channel B2B go-to-market: direct OEM sales with engineering collaboration, vertical-specific manufacturers' representatives (Enders for industrial truck and bus; Future Sales for RV; Rev B for agriculture and construction; William F Miller for marine domestic), and a North American distributor network spanning industrial and marine channels in the US and Canada. Revenue is generated through hardware component sales and private label blade programs with major OEMs and aftermarket brands, including Daimler Truck North America, Navistar, John Deere, Pep Boys, Volvo/Mack, Freightliner, International, and CNH. The company also maintains a Brazil sales office and claims global delivery capability.

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Trico Products: Privately held US-based manufacturer of windshield wiper blades and wiper systems serving heavy-duty, commercial, and aftermarket customers. Highly comparable to WEXCO as a niche specialist competing in the same wiper categories with similar OEM and aftermarket exposure.
• Mitsuba Corporation: Japanese specialist in wiper systems, motors, and automotive electrical components, historically associated with Honda. Directly comparable as a focused wiper and motor specialist serving OEMs, particularly in heavy-duty and motorcycle categories.

Broad incumbents

• Bosch: Global Tier-1 automotive supplier with a broad wiper systems portfolio (Aerotwin, OE-equivalent blades, motors, washer systems) serving passenger car and commercial vehicle OEMs. Overlaps with WEXCO across the heavy-duty truck and OE wiper categories, but operates at vastly larger scale.
• Valeo: French Tier-1 supplier with a large wiper systems business (SWF brand historically) supplying OEMs globally. Directly comparable wiper system products and OEM customer base, but Valeo operates as a diversified automotive conglomerate.
• Denso: Japanese Tier-1 supplier producing wiper systems, motors, and washer components for global OEMs including heavy-duty applications. Comparable product portfolio and OEM customer overlap, with much broader product breadth and Asia-centric manufacturing footprint.
• Federal-Mogul (Anco): Now part of Tenneco/DRiV, Federal-Mogul sells the Anco wiper blade brand across heavy-duty and aftermarket channels. Comparable product overlap with WEXCO's aftermarket and heavy-duty blade programs, but distributed through a much larger commercial vehicle parts portfolio.
• HELLA: German automotive supplier (now part of Forvia) with wiper systems, washer components, and electronics for commercial and passenger vehicle OEMs. Comparable in commercial vehicle wiper and electronics scope, though wiper is one of many HELLA product lines.
• Continental (VDO): Global Tier-1 supplier offering wiper systems and washer components under the Continental/VDO brands. Comparable heavy-duty and commercial vehicle wiper portfolio, but Continental operates across tires, electronics, ADAS, and many adjacent categories.

Emerging players

• PIAA: Specialty wiper blade and silicone wiper brand focused on premium aftermarket and enthusiast segments. Partial overlap with WEXCO's aftermarket blade business, but PIAA focuses on consumer/aftermarket rather than heavy-duty OEM.
• Cap (Wiperblades): Manufacturer of aftermarket and private label wiper blades supplying distributors and retailers in North America. Comparable to WEXCO's private label replacement blade programs targeting dealer service centers and retail channels.
