Why VersaTube Uses American-Made Steel Only
Find out why VersaTube is dedicated to using only 100% American made steel for every steel building system we manufacture.
These days more and more companies are assembling their products overseas using cheap labor and inferior-quality foreign-made parts. We find practices such as these to be shameful. Not only does it mean producing low-quality products, it also hurts the US economy and destroys the American workforce.
At VersaTube, we are dedicated to producing 100% American-made products.
How we do it: It all starts with steel
We make sure that the parts of our buildings are made of only the highest quality, American-made steel. This not only bolsters the steel industry—which has long been one of the cornerstones of the US economy—it also ensures that our customers receive an outstanding final product.
Steel is one of the most recyclable materials on Earth, and America recycles more steel than any other country in the world. In the United States, more steel is recycled than paper, plastic, aluminum, and glass combined.
Steel can be recycled again and again without ever losing its strength and durability. That’s why VersaTube buildings are capable of withstanding whatever the weather throws at them—rain, wind, snow, or hail. Buildings made from high-quality American steel are impervious to fire, pests, cracking, and settling. Simply put, they last longer. While a traditional roof is made to last for less than 20 years, a steel roof can last more than 50.
Supporting the American worker
By using only American-made steel, VersaTube is doing our part to support the American workforce. That thinking goes all down our manufacturing process. From the steel we use to the products we produce, everything is made domestically right down to the smallest fastener or screw.
Supporting the US workforce is important on many levels. Not only does it make more jobs and reduce unemployment—more jobs mean more tax revenues. More tax revenues mean more firefighters, police officers, teachers, librarians, better roads and bridges, more parks, and too many other benefits to list.
The bottom line is that supporting American manufacturing helps the US economy all-around. VersaTube uses American-made steel because we want to support the US workforce while providing our customers with the more high quality product possible. You don’t achieve that by cutting corners and looking abroad—you do it right here at home.
