American-Made Hammocks from Salt Lake City

Grand Trunk was founded in 2001 in Salt Lake City, Utah with a focus on portable hammocks and outdoor gear for travelers, campers, and outdoor enthusiasts. The company's Double TrunkTech Hammock carries an explicit 100% Made in the USA designation — meaningful in the hammock category, where virtually all competitor products are manufactured in China, Brazil, or other overseas locations.

Salt Lake City's position as a hub for outdoor recreation and outdoor product development has shaped Grand Trunk's product design philosophy. The company's products are tested on trails, at music festivals, in backcountry campsites, and in the full range of environments their customers use them.

TrunkTech and Nano 7 Ripstop Materials

Grand Trunk's hammock lines use two proprietary ripstop nylon materials: TrunkTech for their standard double hammocks and Nano 7 for their ultralight single hammock. Ripstop nylon is woven with a reinforcing thread at regular intervals — the 'ripstop' refers to the way the reinforcing threads prevent tears from propagating. This construction gives the fabric high strength-to-weight ratio appropriate for suspension use.

The Double TrunkTech Hammock measures 10.5 feet by 6.5 feet and weighs 21.6 ounces — light enough to add to a pack without significant weight penalty, large enough to sleep comfortably. The 500-pound weight capacity reflects the safety margin appropriate for dynamic loading.

Camping, Backpacking, and Festival Use

Grand Trunk hammocks serve two primary use cases. For backpacking, the priority is minimal packaged weight and volume — the Nano 7 ultralight single hammock packs to a fist-sized bundle appropriate for the minimum-weight ethos of backpacking. For festival and social camping, the Double TrunkTech's larger dimensions and carabiner attachment system prioritize comfortable lounging and quick deployment.

For buyers shopping the hammock category: domestic manufacturing at Grand Trunk means quality control over both the nylon and the hardware, which are the two components most likely to fail at different rates in lower-cost imported sets.
