Before you purchase a new watercraft or think about refurbishing a boat or pontoon, ask whether the products you're about to purchase are made in the USA. Here’s why:
- American Independence
- Jobs and Economic Growth
- Worker and Consumer Safety
- Environmental Impact
- Higher Quality
Exported goods from foreign companies adds an element of uncertainty and introduces fragility in the manufacturing process. Tariffs, trade routes, and foreign relations have a strong impact on the price and availability of raw materials: G-Floor is dedicated to consistent quality and that comes from US-based companies and manufacturing. This 4th of July, maybe more than ever, buying USA-made product is a smart choice to show your American pride.
We are extremely proud to state that G‑Floor® Outdoor & Marine vinyl flooring is made in America and will retain its reliability regardless of any foreign countries.
It's simple: buying American-made products creates more American jobs, and that's good for everyone. It's satisfying to know that each dollar you spend on GFloor.com contributes to America and its citizens.
BLT takes pride in employing workers who support their families and spend money within their local economies.
American companies are required to follow stringent labor laws set by the US Department of Labor, along with other state and municipal requirements. These laws are decided by the American people and create fair working conditions, preventing the exploitation of workers. When you support American workers, you can be certain that their environment is free of difficult, sweatshop-like conditions.
U.S. products are required to pass rigorous standards tests. With American consumer protection laws in place, you can be confident your safety is ensured by multiple governing bodies and policies. “Made in the USA” speaks of quality craftsmanship, transparency, and a far superior product than others from countries with lesser manufacturing and labor standards.
G‑Floor® Outdoor & Marine vinyl pontoon flooring passed thorough requirements to be certified as slip-resistant marine flooring and flame retardant boat flooring. In addition, BLT developed its new industry-leading marine-grade top coat with MicroLock Technology™ for better stain- and UV-resistance, heat and blushing reduction, and easier cleanup.
Shipping materials and goods across the globe have a huge carbon footprint: logistics is a large contributor to carbon emissions, especially because the use of fossil fuels is common in international shipping. While foreign countries may allow back-breaking working conditions that ultimately lowers the cost to the manufacturer, the wellbeing of humans isn't worth the tradeoff. Simply put, anything done overseas is subject to the conditions of that country. Levels of heavy metals in soil, the use of fossil fuels and unclean electricity, improper disposal of waste, and the maintenance of the surrounding environment can't be ensured the same way it can on American soil.
BLT is committed to sustainable manufacturing and business practices. G‑Floor® Outdoor & Marine is manufactured and distributed from a central location in America, and G-Floor and Better Life Technology both keep current with emerging laws, guidelines, and trends to ensure the cleanest, most responsible product.
US-based manufacturing wasn't always synonymous with quality. However, with transparency in the supply chain, adhesion to labor and product safety laws, and ethically-sourced materials, American products are far superior. Not to mention, each dollar spent helps stimulate the American economy.
The quality and value of G‑Floor® Outdoor & Marine Vinyl Flooring is clear:
