Outdoor & auto racks · OEM

Quark is a contract manufacturer of outdoor and automotive carriers — bike, kayak, cargo, and roof systems. For nearly twenty years we have designed, tooled, built, and shipped for brand owners, from two factories in Ningbo, China and Rayong, Thailand.

On the vehicle

Roof, hitch, trunk, and trolley systems. The fitment, the clamp geometry, and the finish are what a brand owner is buying, so these are the products as they leave us and as they go on the car.

Our story

2006

Ningbo, China

Quark is founded in Beilun, Ningbo — hardware, welding, injection, coating, and assembly under one roof.

2024

Rayong, Thailand

A second factory opens — giving customers a China-or-Thailand origin choice against tariffs and single-source risk.

Today

54 patents · 1.2M units / yr

Two decades of in-house engineering and owned tooling, shipping to brand owners across eight markets.

Inside Quark

Drawings, tooling, and the people who answer your emails sit on the same site as the machines — so a question on a sample never has far to travel.

Traced

Every supplier lists its processes; you still have to take on faith that the list applies to your part. So here it runs the other way — a carrier you can order, with each feature on it tied to the operation that made it and to what that operation looks like up close.
