QUALITY MATERIALS
Riechers starts the manufacturing process by choosing the highest quality materials for your truck bed. Whether it’s the steel channel, aluminum crossmembers, or the oak for your sections, we source from some of the best vendors in their industries.
HANDCRAFTING PROCESS
Riechers does not use large machines or high-tech robots to manufacture your truck bed. We use good old American sweat and spirit. Our skilled team has been trained by experienced manufacturers to build the highest quality and most durable truck bodies without the use of high-tech equipment.
PAINT PROCESS
Riechers paint process begins with the skilled team that uses their experience and expertise in industrial painting to make sure that every truck body is as formidable in looks as it is in quality and durability. We use a Commercial grade paint process to add to the durability of your truck bed, with 1 coat of epoxy primer and 2 coats of high quality polyurethane paint. We have 5 standard colors and unlimited color options. Every bed goes through a meticulous prep process to guarantee the best adhesion possible.
