At Titan Battlegear, we have taken a bold stand to produce locally in the Americas, prioritizing what truly matters: delivering the safest, most reliable products on the market. We are proud to differentiate ourselves from both mass market brands and premium competitors who have chosen the path of Chinese production. Our decision may come at the expense of our own margins, but it ensures that we continue to offer products crafted with conscience and care—values deeply embedded in every piece of gear we create.


Proximity and Responsiveness to Market

Titan's commitment to manufacturing within the Americas brings us closer to our primary market, North America. This geographical advantage significantly reduces shipping times and logistics costs, allowing us to respond swiftly to dynamic market demands, produce the highest quality product, and the most ethical supply chain. Unlike competitors who face lengthy lead times and complex logistics from overseas production, we can quickly adapt to new trends, ensuring our products are always at the forefront of consumer preferences.


Elevated Costs for Unmatched Quality

Yes, manufacturing in the Americas means higher labor costs compared to Asia, where many competitors outsource to capitalize on lower wages. However, Titan absorbs these higher costs to guarantee that our products meet the highest standards of quality and safety. The stringent regulatory environment in the Americas ensures our gear adheres to rigorous standards that are often more comprehensive than those found overseas. For Titan, compromising on quality is not an option, even if it means higher production costs.


Ethical Manufacturing and Consumer Trust

Choosing to manufacture in the Americas also reflects Titan's commitment to ethical practices and environmental responsibility. We believe in fair labor practices and sustainable manufacturing, values that resonate with our customers. This ethical stance is in stark contrast to the practices in some Asian manufacturing hubs, where regulatory oversights regarding labor and the environment are often lacking.


Titan's Bold Stand

Titan's choice to manufacture in the Americas is more than a business decision; it's a commitment to our values, our customers, and the sport of hockey itself. As we continue to grow and lead in the industry, our American-made promise remains unwavering, setting new standards for what athletes expect from their gear and what they can achieve on the ice.
