You may have heard of Made in USA furniture. But do you know what the term really means?
According to the Federal Trade Commission, the agency that prevents unfairness, deception and false claims, products advertised as Made in USA must be made in the United States. It is important to note that the similar term, Made in North America, refers to products that can be made in Canada or Mexico, as well as the United States.
Buying Made in USA Furniture
Made in America furniture has a time-honored legacy of fine craftsmanship and durability. The furniture is typically constructed of solid hardwoods like oak and maple. Made in America furniture is required to comply with American labor laws that insure safe working conditions and fair wages. American manufacturers emphasize environmentally responsible production and sustainable sourcing.
When you buy Made in America furniture, ask your Home Living Furniture salesperson if the manufacturer uses handcrafted methods and detailed joinery. These procedures are not commonly found in imported products. You are also likely to find that American-made furniture typically offer a wide range of customization options.
