Made in America – 5 Reasons to Buy Local

by

Recently USA Today ran an article entitled Made in USA Makes Comeback as Marketing Tool. This made me think about how that applies to our wrapping machinery. We offer the following five reasons as guidelines for why you should consider Package Machinery’s overwrappers.

  1. Our wrapping machinery dates back to the early 1900’s. In fact, when there was a contest for the oldest still operating packaging machinery we won hands down. We were complimented by an Italian competitor at the Pack Expo show in 2012 who said that the origins of their overwrapping machines came from copying ours. We still build machines that should last for 80 years.
  2. We are still leading the pack with our technological advances. Package Machinery was first to market with an all servo overwrapper in 2001.  Today, our overwrappers come with third generation controls and a choice of two controls platforms for customer convenience.
  3. Package Machinery offers a high degree of customization to suit the product requirements. Each machine is tailored to the specific needs of the product. This enables us to offer machines that can wrap trays, boxes, bundles or loose product. We are constantly working to extend the abilities of our machines to do more and different products.
  4. We provide unlimited phone support to customers after they buy a machine.  We get calls from people who bought our machines second-hand and we still help them out. Turnaround time for getting answers or parts is much faster.
  5. We are close at hand. We are the best option if you want to buy American. We are more competitively priced than machines from Europe and of a higher quality, even if we do say so ourselves.

That said, buying American should be based on the first four factors. Price and sourcing should not be the driving factors: it is the ability to do the job our customers want done.
