Midwest Innovative Products

Innovative Consumer Products Engineered for Everyday Challenges

Midwest Innovative Products (MIP) creates innovative consumer products that make daily work safer, faster, and easier. Operating from Joliet, Illinois, near Chicago, the company moves ideas quickly from sketch to store shelf because design, testing, tooling, and U.S. manufacturing all happen under one roof.

During the past decade, MIP has placed several brands in more than 20,000 retail locations, including Home Depot, Lowe’s, Walmart, Menards, and Amazon. The portfolio has earned four Most Innovative Product Awards and two Retailers’ Choice honors at the National Hardware Show. Manufacturing in the United States safeguards quality, supports jobs, and shortens lead times.

Twist & Seal – Weather-Resistant Cord Protection

Outdoor power often fails when water reaches plugs. Twist & Seal stops those failures. Its Cord Dome, Cord Protect, Mini, and Max models enclose extension-cord joints inside a rigid polypropylene shell with a flexible gasket. Consequently, rain, snow, and sprinkler spray stay out while power keeps flowing. The housing snaps shut in seconds, needs no tools, and reopens for reuse. Landscapers, holiday-lighting crews, and homeowners rely on Twist & Seal to finish jobs without tripping breakers.

Rhino Cart – All-Terrain Moving Solution

Moving heavy loads over bumps is tough; Rhino Cart makes it simple. A powder-coated steel frame carries up to 2,000 pounds. Eight independent urethane rollers spread weight, roll over gravel and thresholds, and protect finished floors. Adjustable wings grip objects from appliances to cabinets. Therefore, one person can steer the cart safely, and crews complete moves faster with fewer injuries. Visit: RhinoCart Demonstration Video

Drill Dock – Grab-and-Go Tool Storage

Loose drills slow progress and create clutter. Drill Dock fixes the problem with a compact, wall-mounted cradle. A spring-loaded collar locks onto the battery housing, so the tool hangs securely, tip down. Embedded magnets hold driver bits, and side slots store extra batteries. Additionally, the polypropylene body resists impact and solvents, making Drill Dock an all-weather organizer for garages, vans, and job carts.

Since 2019, Midwest Innovative Products has been part of the Colfax Creek portfolio, gaining patient capital for future launches.
