Why our well hand pumps being made in the USA is important.

One great feature of our hand pump kits is the fact that they are 100% made in the United States of America. From the parts to manufacture each kit to the very tape that goes on the packaging, every bit of the kit is made in the USA. This is far from a coincidence.

When our engineers began to design and test what is now our hand pump kits, they were given criteria of what the end product needed to be. The standard that was decided on is that our kits were to be made completely in the USA.

It was not an easy task to accomplish. It is far easier to make an affordable product with components sourced from all over the world. So the question has to be asked. Why would Epp Well Solutions require their hand pumps to be fully made in the USA, and why is this a good thing?

Supporting the local economy.

Here at Epp Well Solutions, we believe in supporting our local economy. From the companies and customers in our home town to others across the country. By manufacturing our products in America we believe we are creating more American jobs, while also being an example to other companies in our field to do the same.

By purchasing American products, you are supporting the American economy. That is another reason why we see having our hand pump kits completely made in the USA as a big deal.

Supply chain protection.

Heading into 2022 you don’t have to look far to see some major issues with the supply chain. If you have tried ordering anything recently you most likely have been told that it could be weeks or even months before you will receive your order. With these supply chain issues, it has been more difficult than ever to get many necessary products.

These issues are seen even more so with products that are manufactured overseas. Whether the products are being fully manufactured overseas, or as raw materials are being mined overseas and brought in for American manufacturers, we can see major delays while the supply chain is trying to catch up with the demand.

We get calls all the time from customers ready to order one of our hand pump kits or even our low yield well systems and they ask how many weeks or months of lead time they are looking at if they order our products because of the supply chain issues. We can gladly tell them that because our hand pumps are fully made in the USA, we are not experiencing any supply chain issues at this time. We can, therefore, can get them their kit right away.

We know that if we were relying on materials shipped in from other countries we would be in the same “boat” (pun intended) as all these other companies seeing delays. This is another reason why we believe having our well hand pump kits 100% made in America is important. Whatever trial comes next, you can rest assured that we can manufacture our hand pumps and help Americans all across the country prepare for any emergency.

Top-notch quality.

You probably know from experience that many American-made products are rarely the cheapest option out there, but they can be generally of higher quality. American manufacturing is quite often more expensive which tends to yield more expensive products.

The great thing about our hand pump kits is that you will find the same great American-made quality while still being at an affordable price. A hand pump for emergencies needs to be very robust and reliable. It needs to hold up well through any climate for many years.

This is another reason we needed our hand pumps to be fully manufactured in the USA. We use the highest quality materials and components in our kits to make them operate the best they can for many years. It is not easy to make a hand pump kit affordable while having it entirely US-made, but we did it, and we are super excited to share that with our customers.

Conclusion

As you can see, there are many reasons why having our hand pump kits made in America is a big deal. It isn’t easy to do, and it rarely yields the cheapest product, but it supports the American economy, protects against supply chain issues, and ensures the highest quality of products.

Next time you go shopping for products, try to find that “Made in America” sticker so that you too can support businesses that strive to make fully American-made products. If you are ever in need of an emergency hand pump kit and would also like to support American-made products and an American business, we have you covered.
