Wiscraft, Inc. is a 501 (c) (3) not-for-profit company with the mission of providing employment opportunities to people who are visually impaired and legally blind. With the national average of unemployment for people who are legally blind at 70%, we are passionate about achieving our Vision that, “Wiscraft will further enrich the lives of people who are legally blind by providing employment opportunities through commercially successful work valued by customers and the community”. Wiscraft employs people who are blind in our machine shop, assembly and packaging, and communication center business units. 

Wiscraft was established in 1903 as the “Wisconsin Workshop for the Blind”. Over its 105-year history, the company has evolved and made the first successful transition from State agency to a private not-for-profit company in 1985. Wiscraft is not a United Way agency and does not receive any operational federal, local or state funding other than through project specific grant requests. Wiscraft’s sources of operational funding primarily consist of revenues from manufacturing. We have excellent long-standing relationships with local customers such as Briggs and Stratton, Harley Davidson, Pentair, P&H, Morris Material Handling, and Oshkosh Truck to name a few.

Wiscraft is ISO 9001:2000 certified and utilizes lean manufacturing processes to insure the highest quality in our products and services. We offer employee training that begins with an evaluation of baseline skill levels and the ability to objectively match the worker with the job skills necessary to meet customer requirements. Wiscraft is an Employer of Choice and has an ongoing focus on improvements to the work environment. Our employees have a feeling of success, an increased awareness of the importance of a job well done as well as a heightened level of pride and independence.
