Stroll into any big box shop, pick an item up at random off of the shelf, and look at its label. Odds are you will see the same 3 words on its tag: “Made in China.” Depending upon the item, it may read “Made in Taiwan” or “Made in Mexico” – however, it almost definitely will not say “Made in the U.S.”
Consumers have many reasons for selecting American-made products, which include these:
Jobs
The most typical reason consumers give for purchasing American includes helping to create or save jobs in America.
Lower Carbon Footprint
Items made overseas will have a greater carbon footprint than American-made products.
Less Pollution
A reason it is less expensive to make products in developing countries is that most of them have no or few rules that guard the health of the water and air. Most factories overseas which produce products for export to America additionally produce larger quantities of dangerous chemicals which pollute the water, soil, and air.
Human Rights
Besides having weaker environmental rules, the countries which produce the items American citizens buy oftentimes have no laws that guard the rights of employees.
Health
A lack of safety and environmental rules overseas does not just place foreign employees at risk – it also can threaten the health of consumers in America.
Stronger Economy
Buying U.S.-made goods does not only support the employees who make these products. Its benefits additionally ripple out all through the whole economy.
Though United States manufacturing as a whole declined since the 1990s, the American furniture industry actually is doing well. Even though American furniture manufacturers have to compete with inexpensive furniture from overseas, they’ll have two main benefits: better access to United States customers and lower shipping costs. It’ll allow them to more quickly respond to changes in demand; therefore they’re always making what individuals are most eager to purchase.
American Made Dining Furniture generally is pricier than the inexpensive pressboard pieces that are sold at places such as Target and IKEA. But, U.S.-made furniture typically is of better quality, too. Most American furniture manufacturers make their goods by hand from solid wood and additional natural materials then sell them in selected stores or online.
