#PhillyProud Residential & Commercial Manufacturer of Awnings, Shades, Sunrooms, Decking, & Railing
Philadelphia is ready for the 2026 MLB All-Star Game, and Craft-Bilt is proud to join the celebration of America’s favorite pastime in the city where history and hometown pride come together. This summer is more than a baseball event; it is a once-in-a-generation moment that honors the 250th anniversary of American independence, MLB’s 150th anniversary, and Craft-Bilt’s 80th anniversary as a family-owned manufacturer.
From the diamond to the backyard, Americans take pride in what they build, what they cheer for, and where they gather. Baseball has always represented teamwork, tradition, and grit, and those same values guide Craft-Bilt as we design products that help homes and businesses create customized, long-lasting, and beautiful outdoor spaces. That is why our mission to Bring America Outside™ feels especially meaningful in a year when Philadelphia takes center stage for the national pastime.
Craft-Bilt’s residential and commercial product lines are built for people who want more from the spaces they live and work in. Our awnings, shades, and canopies provide shade and comfort, our aluminum waterproof decking helps protect outdoor living areas, our railing systems add safety and architectural appeal, and our sunrooms create bright, inviting places to enjoy the outdoors in every season. For commercial properties, our decking, railing, and shading solutions help create durable, cost-effective, attractive outdoor environments that welcome customers, guests, employees, and residents.
This year’s All-Star celebration MLB All-Star also gives us a chance to reflect on a fun piece of Philly-area baseball lore from our ad: the Flourtown-Erdenheim Little League team that reportedly went 17-3 in 1965. That kind of neighborhood baseball success captures the same spirit that still drives the game today: local pride, great teamwork, and memories that last long after the final inning. It is a reminder that the road to the big leagues often begins on the hometown field.
We are also proud to recognize Somfy® Somfy Systems as our exclusive motor and control partner. Somfy is a global manufacturer and U.S. leader in motors, electronic controls, and smart home automation systems for interior and exterior window coverings and access solutions, including garage doors, awnings, shades, and canopies. Their innovation helps make outdoor living more convenient, more connected, and more enjoyable for homeowners and businesses alike.
As Philadelphia welcomes baseball fans from across the country, Craft-Bilt is honored to be part of a celebration that blends American history, sporting tradition, and the enduring appeal of outdoor living. Sincere thanks to homeowners and businesses across North America for helping to fulfill Craft-Bilt’s vision to “Bring America Outside™”.
