Sunrise Industries

What Sunrise Industries does

Sunrise Industries Inc. is a US-based manufacturer and distributor of limited-wear and disposable protective apparel, headquartered at 4008 Creek Ridge Road in Guntersville, Alabama. Founded in 1992 and operating as a privately held corporation, the company sells exclusively through authorized distributors and does not transact directly with end customers. It serves four primary verticals: industrial safety (hazardous particulate, chemical splash, and FR/chemical handling), medical and dental, food processing, and death care, with products designed to meet OSHA Level A, B, and C protection standards. The company self-describes as 'one of the industry's premier suppliers of limited-wear and disposable clothing.'

The product portfolio spans protective coveralls, flame-retardant apparel, lab coats, lab jackets, gowns, and an extensive accessories line (aprons, shoe and boot covers, sleeve protectors, bouffants, beard covers, masks, face shields, gloves, hoods, shirts, and pants). Sunrise combines proprietary fabric technologies—including SunSoft (spunbonded polypropylene with polyethylene coating), Suntech (microporous film laminated to spunbonded polypropylene), Sunshield 100, SunGard FR (flame retardant), Sunlite Ultra (SMS fabric), and Suntech Cool (breathable-back-panel construction)—with full-line distribution of DuPont Tyvek, Tychem (QC, SL, F, CPF3, BR, TK series), and ProShield product lines. Custom-tailoring is offered to meet specific requirements.

Commercial mechanics are quote-based B2B: pricing is not publicly disclosed, and customers must call a toll-free line (800-537-5504) or contact sales via email for quotes. Products ship in case quantities (e.g., 25 coveralls per case, 50 shoe covers per case, 100 aprons per case) on a pay-as-you-go cadence. The company markets through its website product catalog and a physical/digital catalog, and actively recruits independent sales representatives under a 'Sales Reps Wanted' program to extend authorized-distributor reach. No revenue, ownership, management team, funding history, or financial details are publicly disclosed.
