EverLast® Induction Lighting Selected as a 2010 True American Made Hero Company
Jackson, MI– July 28, 2010 – EverLast® Induction Lighting has been named one of 2010's True American Hero Companies by www.AmericanMadeHeroes.com. The creator of American Made Heroes (AMH), Mike Tamulis, made this decision after researching how EverLast® induction fixtures are produced. A video on the company's website shows how EverLast® manufactures its cobra head and shoe box fixtures in Jackson, Michigan, formerly known as a primarily automotive manufacturing county.
By manufacturing the new EverLast® Induction Cobra Head and Shoe Box fixtures in the U.S., EverLast® Induction Lighting supports jobs with 10 additional U.S. manufacturers, many of which had been suppliers for automotive companies before the crash of the industry. Eight reprogrammed and fully-automated robots are used to produce one EverLast® induction light fixture every 30 seconds. Each fixture body is composed of 80 percent recycled polycarbonate resin, also making the EverLast® U.S. Cobra Head and Shoe Box fixtures two of the most environmentally conscious fixtures on the market.
Entrepreneur Mike Tamulis started his AMH program earlier this year after becoming aware of the many challenges that domestic manufacturing companies face when competing against foreign imports. "I watched a number of close friends who owned U.S. manufacturing companies struggle to stay afloat," Tamulis stated. "It was difficult to watch knowing that I was unable to do anything to help."
Tamulis created AmericanMadeHeroes.com as an internet platform that recognizes, honors, and applauds those companies that continue to manufacture their products in the United States, even when their competitors frequently chose to close their domestic manufacturing, fire their American employees and outsource. AMH presents content to help educate Americans on current issues and events that affect U.S. laborers and manufacturers.
AmericanMadeHeroes.com recognizes a variety of industry leaders, ranging from the popular clothing brand, American Apparel, to the all-American motorcycle manufacturer, Harley Davidson. The aforementioned companies are true American Made Heroes.
