About Us

We are vehicle enthusiasts, just like you.

Botter Manufacturing Inc. was founded in 2019 by Lars Botter in Ontario, Canada. We are vehicle enthusiasts who focus on designing and manufacturing specialized products for spirited motor-heads. We devote our time to developing products that are no longer available from original equipment suppliers, but are still very much in need by specific enthusiast communities of vehicle owners. We also invent products that we believe should have been equipped in vehicles from the factory. These include products such as armrests and cup holders that are now standard in vehicles today, but were not commonplace in vehicles of the past. Our products, whether functional or considered as a worthy upgrade, enable our customers to continue enjoying their unique vehicles for many years to come. This ultimately leads to a reduction of older vehicles ending up in scrapyards & landfills and more special cars, trucks, and recreational vehicles left on the road.

The importance of older vehicles in a person’s life is often overlooked by non vehicle enthusiasts. For those who have a special car, for example, that car may signify the car they had their first date night in with their significant other, or a time they bonded with a family member over during a late night repair session. Our mission is to maintain these countless stories and representations that are tied to a special vehicle in an enthusiast’s life. We believe we can do that with exceptional products and individualized customer service.

Our products are currently 3D printed, finished, and assembled using some outsourced materials. We are working on processes to move beyond just 3D printing such as injection molding, foam molding, and metal fabrication. All of these processes will further enable us to continue creating products that our customers want to see.

We are an e-commerce business that ships worldwide and manufactures all of our products, proudly, in our 110 square foot workshop in Innisfil, Ontario, Canada. 

We are always open to working with local and international companies who are inclined to become distributors of our products. Additionally, if you have an idea for a part that you’d like to have made, please reach out to us and we’ll see if it’s something that we’re able to develop for you!
 

Lars Botter - Founder

I’ve always considered myself to be a passionate builder who likes to understand how things work. While working to attain my mechanical engineering degree in 2019, a few close friends nudged me in the direction of opening my own business. The result was Botter Manufacturing Inc., which went through many different stages to get to where it is today.  This business combines my love for mechanical design, product development, enthusiast-driven vehicles, and my desire to make a positive impact on the community of motorheads as a whole. I'm a classic BMW enthusiast and boat owner myself. I own a European spec, 1990 320i 5-speed convertible and an old Cadorette Skipper bowrider. They're slow but still lots of fun, and I have them to thank for getting me into this line of work!
