Frequently Asked Questions

Innovating with Purpose

How we Add Value

Traditionally, we supplied bare fuel tanks, which later evolved into fully assembled modules including fuel hoses, pumps, sender units, roll-over valves, filler hoses, heat shields, steel support cradles, and wiring harnesses. These complete assemblies were delivered just-in-time to vehicle manufacturing plants, allowing seamless installation onto the chassis as the vehicle moved along the production line. Kaymac ensured the fuel tank's integrity throughout the entire lifespan of the vehicle.

Our collapsible bins can be customized with a variety of dunnage tailored precisely to each customer’s needs. Kaymac’s innovative design focuses on maximizing the “perfect cube” in returnable packaging, delivering customers a 10 to 20 percent increase in parts packed per bin—optimizing space and efficiency.

We produce a diverse range of twin-walled, polyurethane insulated cooler boxes tailored for the vending market. At KSF’s fully equipped assembly facility, we apply custom graphics, install latches and hinged bottle openers, and mount the units onto trolleys for easy portability. Each assembled cooler is ready for immediate use at events, perfect for selling cold drinks, cigarettes, cell phone cards, and more.

We’ve forged international partnerships with industry leaders to access and implement cutting-edge technologies, ensuring we stay at the forefront of innovation.
