VU Manufacturing specializes in soft-trim products and assemblies for automotive interiors, delivering wrapped components such as door and armrest assemblies, instrument panels, consoles, and seat trims. These parts typically combine a substrate with a top coat material like cloth, vinyl, or leather, which is cut and sewn to the intended shape. The company emphasizes engineering involvement at the concept stage to help design products that are both desirable and manufacturable with consistent quality in production. Based in Troy, Michigan, the company operates within the motor vehicle manufacturing industry, focusing on interior trim solutions for automakers. VU Manufacturing extends its capabilities through VU Plastics, which operates injection molding presses and serves customers in the Central Southwest United States and Northern Mexican border region with shoot/ship and assembled plastic products. A recent report notes workforce changes tied to a border facility, including a reduction of 71 employees in August 2023 and the facility's closure, with some workers remaining employed at the time.
