Our History.
Where You Come From Matters.
We come from nearly two decades of experience, excellence, and uncompromised dedication. It all starts with building value and relationships, a track record of proven success, and the vision of our founder Vinnie Johnson.
Since 1996, Piston Automotive has evolved from a small-corrugated pallet manufacturer into one of America’s leading value-added assembly suppliers. Today, we tackle some of the automotive industry’s most complex, challenging projects, including advanced electric and hybrid vehicle battery systems.
While we are proud of our history and never forget where we came from, our eyes are constantly on the future. That is why we’re still growing, still building, and still working hard to be better than the day before.
