We are Imperial Outdoors

We began our journey at Nelson Industries over 15 years ago as a custom finishing company known for building ice fishing houses. Since the beginning we have worked hard to provide some of the best quality products in our industry. We saw a need for a travel trailer with sturdier construction, better insulation, and strong focus on weight management. Imperial Outdoors® is a brand born from that mindset which reflects all of our combined manufacturing experience, as well as our passion for year-round outdoor fun. Imperial units are built from the ground up with owner satisfaction in mind.

The Best Quality Products Made in the United States

The Imperial Outdoors Xplore Series starts where your adventures do — right here in the USA. Assembled in Saint Croix Falls, Wisconsin, each trailer is built by a team that takes personal pride in the craft. We source the best components available, prioritizing local partners wherever possible, because we believe the people who build your trailer should care just as much about it as you do.

Imperial Outdoors History

How it Started & How its Going

Nelson Industries started out as a custom finishing company over a decade ago. Since the beginning, we’ve been providing some of the best quality products in our industry.

Our Manufacturing Process

All of our units are designed and built in our Saint Croix Falls, WI manufacturing facility.  Each unit is hand-built in stages from the frame up, taking care to ensure every component is precisely fit and tested before leaving the factory.  

Each panel in our units is CNC cut to ensure a consistent fit.  Every component we use in our products is researched extensively before being selected to ensure we’re providing our customers the best user experience possible.

A Solid Team Makes a Difference

We’re fortunate to have a dedicated team that takes pride in their work.  Everyone here is knowledgeable in various parts of the production process.  This allows anyone to step in without extensive direction to help when needed.  Our team’s expertise and flexibility are key to our success.
