Wholesale HVAC Vent Manufacturer — American-Made Vent Caps & Ventilation Products Since 1937

Artis Metals Company has been in business since 1937, in the midst of the Great Depression. Our founder, Samuel W. Artis, moved his family from Florissant, MO all the way out West to Idaho in 1930. The watershed moment for Artis Metals came when Sam and his oldest son Edward Joseph invented a new design for a chimney cap that prevented down drafts from backing up smoke and soot in stoves. The original major customers of Artis Metals Company were the Coleman Stove Company, which placed the caps on its oil burning stoves, and the US Military. As WWII broke out, the US military bought thousands of Artis Vacuum Caps to help keep our soldiers warm in Quonset huts across the US and the world where they were deployed.

Artis Metals Company has remained true to its historical reputation of providing quality products to businesses large and small, constructed from heavier gauge material and continually adapting the products based on feedback from its customers, employees, and the changing industry. The business remains family owned by the offspring of founder Samuel W. Artis
