What sets A.R.E. truck caps apart? We didn’t start as a brand yesterday. Since 1969, A.R.E. has been the largest single-brand manufacturer of truck toppers and hard tonneau covers in America. Our reputation is built on precision engineering, premium materials, and uncompromising quality that’s matched by over 800 dealers and professional partners across the nation.
Every A.R.E. truck cap is custom-built at our manufacturing plants in Ohio, not mass-produced overseas. We maintain direct control over every aspect of production — from resin selection to final assembly — ensuring that your A.R.E. cap meets our exacting standards. This isn’t outsourced manufacturing. This is American engineering with 55+ years of truck topper expertise behind it.
We offer two premium material systems: fiberglass construction for recreational truck owners who demand sleek styling and durability, and heavy-duty aluminum for commercial operators and contractors who need industrial-strength protection. Both materials are engineered to withstand the toughest conditions while maintaining the precision fit that defines an A.R.E. truck cap.
Precision Engineering
Every A.R.E. cap is designed to fit your specific truck with military precision. Custom-built tooling for each model ensures a seamless integration that off-the-shelf competitors can’t match.
Premium Materials
We use aerospace-grade fiberglass resin and aircraft-quality aluminum (.063 skin on commercial models). Your truck cap protects your investment — and we protect it with materials that last decades.
American Manufacturing
Built in Ohio since 1969. A.R.E. truck caps are engineered and manufactured right here in America, supporting local jobs and maintaining quality control from raw materials to final delivery.
Built for Every Truck Owner
We engineered A.R.E. truck caps for distinct truck owner communities. Whether you’re a weekend adventurer, a professional contractor, or an overlanding enthusiast, we have an A.R.E. cap that matches your lifestyle. Our design philosophy recognizes that not every truck owner has identical needs — and our diverse product line reflects that reality.
From the sleek, automotive-inspired Z Series to the rugged, expedition-ready Overland Series, A.R.E. offers toppers designed with your specific use case in mind. Commercial operators choose our DCU Max Series for its heavy-duty aluminum construction and work-focused features. Weekend truck owners gravitate toward our V Series and CX Classic models for their balanced blend of style, storage, and accessibility. Off-road enthusiasts love the Overland Series for its protective spray coating and rugged two-tone aesthetic.
Whatever your truck journey looks like, A.R.E. has engineered an A.R.E. cap for you. We’ve been listening to truck owners for over 55 years — and that feedback shaped every design decision we make.
