Committed to quality

Why Snap-tite Hose’ s dedication to quality and innovation extends beyond manufacturing

As one of the largest lay-flat hose manufacturers in the US, and the only one to be ISO 9001:2015 certified, Snaptite Hose( Snap-tite) provides hose for municipal, industrial, forestry, military, and agricultural applications. With the user depending on the hose in vulnerable or lifethreatening applications, Snap-tite prioritizes reliability, quality, and durability of every single hose, regardless of its application.

Having focused primarily on the municipal sector in recent years, Snap-tite has elevated industry standards for both quality and safety, designing products through collaboration with firefighters to ensure the hose not only meets requirements but can withstand tough conditions. However, the company has recently launched new products to target growth in other critical markets. Snap-tite’ s agricultural hose caters to the industry’ s unique demands, for instance, and is designed to optimize efficiency in challenging farming environments.
In early 2024, James Novinsky joined Snap-tite as CEO, and has since taken the business to new heights, transforming internal processes, upholding quality standards, and refining the approach to customer service.
