In recent years, onshoring has become more popular. This is due to several things, like increased international tariffs, supply chain disruptions, and people beginning to support local economies again. At Benchmark Foam, we offer foam solutions for businesses that are choosing to manufacture closer to home.
How Tariffs Affect Manufacturing
Tariffs on imported goods have been a large part of onshoring. These costs can impact the bottom line of a company and the cost for end users. For automotive, packaging, and furniture industries, tariffs can make domestic sourcing a better choice. By working with local suppliers like Benchmark Foam, companies can avoid these added expenses while also reducing lead times and improving supply chain reliability.
Local Production Control Benefits
Another factor contributing to the rise of onshoring is the desire for greater control over production processes. When done locally, manufacturing can let businesses better manage quality, respond to market demands and keep closer supplier relationships. At Benchmark Foam, we naturally contribute to this as a local supplier.
Helping Local Economies
Onshoring positives go beyond cost savings and quality control. By choosing domestic suppliers, companies can also contribute to local economies and create jobs in their communities. Benchmark Foam is proud to be part of this movement. Based in the United States, we are dedicated to supporting American manufacturing and helping our clients succeed in a competitive market.
