9/8/21 –ย ย Loos and Companyย is proud to announce the unveiling of our newย government salesย webpage. This page features our capabilities statement, shows proof of qualifications, lists our manufacturing standards and specifications, and provides an overview of our areas of support. As a domestic manufacturer, Loos has numerous certifications that we feel are important to share with you, especially when they regard government contracts. Here is a brief breakdown of the new government sales page.
Buy America, Buy American, and Domestic Manufacturing:
Loos draws wire, strands, and closes wire rope up to 1-1/4″ DIA right in the USA at our Pomfret, Connecticut facility. As a result, our capability statement focuses on how Loos meets the standards of Buy America and Buy American. What’s Buy American? Specific manufacturing outlines set by the Federal Government. For a wire product to qualify for Buy American, the wire must be manufactured in the USA, and the cost of domestic components must exceed 50% of the total cost. You may have noticed we also use the terms “100% domestic” or “Buy America” when talking about our products. For wire rope to be called “100% domestic” or “Buy America”, products are required to have been manufactured in the USA from components made in the USA, including the steel mill products. Refer to our completeย government salesย page for additional information.
Our Primary Areas of Support:
Our new government sales webpage focuses on our ability to meet Military and Federal specifications. Our page provides the exact number and callouts for each of theseย specifications, making it easy to see the full extent of our manufacturing capabilities.
Our Certifications:
Our new webpage highlights some of our achievements as a manufacturing company. For example, our Wire and Wire Rope Division at Loos meets ISO 9001:2015 & AS9100: Rev D certification. Additionally, we have highlighted our CAGE and DUNS ID numbers to make it easy for those working in government sales quickly to quickly and easily reference our capabilities.
