Rethink what plastic can do for you

Rhinohide makes canopies and tractor products built from tough plastic. That's right. In a world of steel, we're choosing plastic.

We focus on practical designs that hold up to real world use. And we want to deliver them to you quick, easy, and affordably.

Rhinohide's History

1986

It started with shade

Don McCoy began designing and building canopies for tractors and mowers. That experience laid the groundwork for the product that would become Rhinohide.

1999

First step: Failure

Don fabricated an aluminum mold to produce a canopy from HDPE (High Density Poly Ethylene), a plastic tough beyond its pedigree.

The mold was a total failure. They just couldn’t get a good part unless they switched to ABS plastic. 

2013

A tough idea takes shape

Don shelved the idea until 2013, when he decided to lay out some big bucks for a cast aluminum, thermally controlled, professionally formed mold.

His work produced a tough polyethylene canopy shell and a mounting system designed for compact tractors and mowers.

2022

Two brothers. The next chapter.

We were customers before we were owners.

When Don retired, we (Courtney & Chris) took over Rhinohide to carry his work forward.

Now we're doing everything we can to make customers aware of the toughest canopy on the market.

Today

More to come

Today, we’re continuing to improve our canopies, create accessories, and expand the product line with products like the RhinoEdge.
