Why Blueswift is the Axle Choice of American Trailer Owners
Working with an American trailer axle manufacturer offers several advantages, especially concerning lead times and economic reasons. Here are the 10 reasons why working with an American axle manufacturer sets Blueswift Axles apart.
1. Shorter Lead Times:
Domestic manufacturing eliminates the need for international shipping, customs clearances, and potential delays due to geopolitical tensions or trade disputes. This ensures a faster turnaround from order placement to delivery, enabling businesses to respond quickly to market demands.
2. Reduced Shipping Costs:
Transporting goods domestically is generally cheaper than international shipping. This can lead to significant savings, especially for bulk orders.
3. Quality Assurance:
American manufacturers often adhere to stringent quality standards and regulations. This ensures that the trailer axles are of high quality, durable, and meet safety requirements.
4. Economic Impact:
Supporting local businesses contributes to the American economy. It helps in job creation, boosts local communities, and ensures that money circulates within the country.
5. Clear Communication:
Working with domestic manufacturers reduces potential communication barriers, such as language differences or time zone discrepancies. This ensures smoother transactions and quicker problem resolution.
6. Flexibility:
American Trailer Manufacturers offer greater flexibility in terms of customization, adjustments, or last-minute changes to orders. In the USA each trailer is made differently, which is why Blueswift Axles has the flexibility to support the largest custom range of trailer axle sizes in the industry.
Competitors are unable to offer this because it’s harder to achieve when dealing with overseas suppliers due to distance and communication challenges.
7. Lead Times
While other companies are ordering trailer axles from China, we’re building them here in Iowa at our manufacturing branch, HSI Duratek. One way to know who is an Actual American company is by the lead times. Here at Blueswift Axles, you’re getting the fastest lead times from the heart of America.
8. Reduced Inventory Costs:
With shorter lead times, we adopt an on-demand inventory system. This reduces the costs associated with holding large amounts of stock.
9. Stable Pricing:
Domestic sourcing shields businesses from volatile international market fluctuations, currency exchange rate uncertainties, and unexpected tariffs or trade restrictions.
10. Quality:
Our customers appreciate Axles made in the USA for their quality and the support of our nation’s industries.
While globalization offers a myriad of choices for sourcing products, there are undeniable benefits to working with American trailer axle manufacturers, especially when considering lead times and economic implications. Blueswift Axles is committed to working closely with our American manufacturing partner, HSI Duratek.
