Company Information: Aeroshade, the largest manufacturer of woven wood shades, draperies and folding doors in the United States, originated in Waukesha, Wisconsin in 1912 and has grown to be one of that community's most respected companies. Since its origin, demand for their products caused a need for national distribution of the shades and draperies. The use of their products in homes, schools, hospitals, businesses, institutions and college dormitories all over the United States has brought about a great reputation as well as satisfied customers.
To create this good fortune, Aeroshade developed and patented its own exclusive method of manufacturing Temlite Loomwood shades, porch coverings and draperies as well as developing the lock-twist design used in weaving the fisherman's seine twine in all Aeroshade products. (They hold the patents on this weaving process.) Aeroshade Inc. now occupies a “70,000 square foot office and manufacturing complex, situated on a full city block owned by Aeroshade for future expansion. The company's young, aggressive management foresees great growth in the future due to energy conservation and the insulating factor of the Basswood used in Aeroshade products.”
