Who We Are: The Dinosaur Company
American-Made Dinosaurs in the Heart of Texas!
Creatures At The Dinosaur Company (Billings Productions, Inc.)- in Allen, Tx- we manufacture life-size animatronic dinosaurs, prehistoric predators, and giant bugs! Since 2003, we have partnered with zoos, museums, and other educational organizations all around the world to host exhibits filled with our amazing creatures.
Tours In 2019, we began our journey to become a more community-inclusive company and started giving public tours of our own facility. We rely heavily on the union of science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics to create life-size animatronic creatures. Our educational tours include a behind-the-scenes look at our facility- sparking the imagination and stimulating minds of all ages to explore the limitless possibilities of the STEAM field. We are in the business of getting people excited about science!
Events In 2021, we opened the doors to our brand new facility- which features a lovely gift shop and spacious event room. At The Dinosaur Company, we are passionate about educating the public on both prehistoric creatures and conservation of the ones roaming the earth today. Our events and workshops incorporate an educational element about our natural world, or touch on STEAM concepts- in playful and engaging ways.
Community Despite the size of our creatures, we are a small, family-owned company. We believe in being an active part of our community. We love to think outside the box and partner with nonprofits and community organizations in unique ways.
