Made in the USA
chill-n-go, Inc. leases roughly 8,000 square feet of production area, plus just
under 2,000 square feet of warehouse and fulfillment space. The company owns and operates
an abundance of commercial sewing equipment, including computerized pattern stitchers,
compound sewing machines, hot/cold zipper and webbing cutters, Tajima embroidery
machines, hydraulic presses and cutters, and textile/leather cutting equipment. Domestic
manufacturing is vertically integrated; all segments of the process, from pattern
cutting of rolled materials, through digitizing and embroidered adornment, then
through the production/assembly floor, to the final QC and packaging processes,
are performed internally.
Manufacturing in China
chill-n-go, Inc. maintains a definitive operational agreement for manufacturing
capacity in China. Off-shore manufacturing provides two important components:
-
alternative client or customer options meeting economic objectives within longer-term
time parameters.
-
manufacturing labor intensive chill-n-go® products under strict material and
quality specification
Example; most WOW bags (Wine on Wheels) begin in China,
but are 'finished' in our domestic plant.
Significant time, resources and effort went into first, searching for and finding
the right company/people; and second, 'working through' the quality construction
methods and materials sourcing necessary to bear our trademark.
The 'front end' result of this effort allows us to confidently maintain our lifetime
warranty.
It also meets a Core Value of Quality Manufacturing
and adherence to our Core Purpose.
