Made in the U.S.A. – How Preferred is Navigating Tariffs, Supply Chains, and a Growing Demand

Recent economic shifts and international trade tensions have sent waves through the markets. Tariff uncertainty and global supply chain challenges are causing many companies and investors to worry about the future of their operations and product availability.

Made in the U.S.A., Preferred Utilities is proud to offer customers confidence and clarity in uncertain times.

At Preferred, our products — including burners, fuel handling systems, nuclear outage equipment and the majority of our controls — are designed, manufactured, and supported right here in Danbury, Connecticut, with additional offices and support for our industrial equipment in Tulsa, Oklahoma. While it’s nearly impossible to source 100% of electronic boards and components domestically, we’ve always made a conscious effort to avoid Chinese suppliers and relationships, for greater reliability and reduced exposure to global supply chain risks.

Insulated from Tariffs, Built for Stability

As companies brace for the impact of future tariffs, we want to take this opportunity to remind our customers that Preferred Utilities’ core systems are not impacted by these trade disruptions. Our commitment to American manufacturing means that your lead times remain consistent, your equipment is reliable, and your service is local.

In fact, we’ve recently made major investments in new machinery and factory automation to increase throughput at our Danbury headquarters. These upgrades allow us to keep up with growing demand without furhter sacrifices on lead times and prices affected by international tarrifs.

Supporting U.S. Manufacturing, Now and Into the Future

We share the vision of many in our nation: a strong, resilient manufacturing base right here in the United States. Preferred believes in bringing manufacturing back to the States wherever possible — not just for patriotic reasons, but because it results in better products, more responsive service, and greater long-term stability.

Our customers can do their part by insisting on equipment that’s built and supported in the U.S., from a company that’s been doing exactly that for over 100 years.

The Bottom Line

Preferred Utilities is committed to keeping our operations close to home, expanding our U.S. production capacity, and providing reliable products that are resistant to tariff impacts and global supply chain volatility. We’re not waiting on overseas shipments. We’re building right here, right now.

If you’re looking for dependable partners who manufacture in the U.S.A., and who are proactively investing in the future of domestic industry — Preferred Utilities is your answer.
