Tariff impositions, geopolitical conflict, and supply chain shifts have forced businesses to become actively resilient. As global trade evolves, more companies are deciding to reshore their operations in the U.S. A recent report found that planning and active execution of reshoring reached 26 percent. However, ongoing labor challenges remain an obstacle to such a transition.

As conversations around reshoring intensify, Excel Dryer, Inc. continues to stand firm, building its products in America. From day one, the company made a commitment to manufacture in the United States, not just for economic reasons, but to uphold its core values.

"At Excel Dryer, 'Made in the USA' isn't just a label; it's who we are and in our DNA," says Excel Dryer, Inc. COO William Gagnon. "Long before global trade tensions or supply chain disruptions, we made the intentional choice to build our business right here at home."

Headquartered in East Longmeadow, Massachusetts, Excel Dryer designs, sources, manufactures, and assembles all of its hand dryers in the U.S., supporting American jobs and fueling the domestic economy. The company's products are found in airports, stadiums, schools, and businesses across the globe, but their origin remains the same: a small town in western Massachusetts with a big heart for innovation, quality, and craftsmanship.

For Excel Dryer employees, it's more than just manufacturing—it's personal.

"We put our sweat into building these dryers, and I'm very proud they're made in America," says Factory Plating Technician Luis Espinal. "Having pride in what I do is very important for me because those covers are all over the world."

The company credits its success to a family-like culture and strong local partnerships. Many employees have been with the company for decades. Some vendors have partnered with Excel Dryer for over 40 years and are considered part of the extended team.

"We listen to our employees and invest in their well-being," shares Gagnon. "From robotic technology that reduces physical strain to open communication channels that invite input, we're committed to making Excel a safe, supportive place to work."
