Aquasana manufactures water filters to reduce contaminants found in tap water while keeping beneficial minerals, such as magnesium and calcium, to keep you hydrated as well as healthy. Sun Water Systems is the company behind Aquasana, and they are located in Texas, meaning all their prime filtration systems, including its adjustable showerhead filter and its Clean Water Machine for drinking, are assembled in America.
Every country in the world has its own water systems and its own quality of water, and they are not all the same. Aquasana Water Filters insist on developing and manufacturing its products near home so it can test local water and, therefore, deliver the best product possible.
Made in the USA: Chesapeake Bay Candles
Chesapeake Bay Candle factory makes more than a half-million scented candles every month, which are then sold at popular retail stores such as Target, as well as on Amazon. But they are no longer made in Maryland, as recently 125 workers were laid off there so Newell Brands, the company's owner since 2017, could move production to Whatley, Massachusetts — at least they are still made in America.
Candles can be found almost anywhere; however, not all candles you find are particularly good. Chesapeake Bay could easily move its production plant to a much cheaper location, however, it could have put the quality of the candles at risk.
Made in the USA: Green Toys
Green Toys has made its toys using more than 80 million recycled milk jugs. Their toys are fashioned to meet very strict standards for safety as well as sustainability, and that includes their packaging. The company relies on a local, all-American supply chain which also reduces energy usage, all this makes Green Toys a top seller when it comes to eco-friendly children's toys, offering sorting sets and miniature toy vehicles that will only set you back around $30.
Green Toys not only look after the planet, but they create beautiful toys while keeping their manufacturing plant inland. This is for sure as good as it gets.
Made in the USA: Lasko Fans
Lasko has been creating small home appliances and products in the U.S. for more than 100 years, and now that's something worth celebrating. Although some of its products are now produced overseas — with Lasko motors coming from China — the company continues to make many American-made products at its factories in Tennessee, Texas, and Pennsylvania.
A small domestic fan will forever be part of American households, especially in hot states where the summers can get quite intense for some, so Lasko prefers to spend a few more pennies on production to maintain the reputation of having a great product.
Made in the USA: Fiesta Tableware
Fiesta began when two brothers from East Liverpool, Ohio, (yes, England is not the only country with a Liverpool) formed a partnership to sell pottery wares back in 1871. Fiesta's ceramic tableware is made in several colorful art-deco styles. Since 1936, Fiesta has been manufactured in Newell, West Virginia.
In 2002, The New York Times called Fiesta "the most collected brand of china in the United States." Fiesta took its first footsteps in the industry in the late 19th century, when quality meant a product for life, unlike these days, when goods last barely five years, and we are forced to renew constantly.
