It seems as though every day Americans see another news report about another manufacturing company closing up shop and moving their production out of the US. This is a frequent phenomenon but there are still companies who began in the U.S.A. and whose factories continue to thrive here. One such company is Elkay Manufacturing. They began as a sink manufacturer in Chicago in 1920 and have since expanded the business and moved into many additional product categories. These products include countertops, faucets, drinking fountains, and more. Elkay’s home office still resides in Illinois and even though they now have a global reach; the majority of their factories are found across this country. Factories can be found on the east coast from York, PA to out west in Aurora, CO. Many of the Elkay product families are proudly manufactured in the U.S.A. and comply with the Buy American Act and the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Elkay has created many jobs in the US over their ninety-three year history. This fact is not only important to the employees who have a secure income. When that income is spent it becomes important to the countries economic future as a whole.

One recent addition to the Elkay line of drinking fountains is the EZH2O Bottle Filling Station. This is a commercial product directed to those individuals who want to refill their water bottles quickly with cool filtered water. These individuals include myself as I wish the bottle stations were at my gym, the stores I frequent, basically everywhere. I often need to refill my water bottle in the afternoon and using a traditional drinking fountain to fill a whole bottle is difficult. I have to stand at the fountain waiting for the bottle to fill while people wait behind me. Then if I spill any water it overflows the fountain and ends up on the floor. The EZH2O fills bottles three times faster than a traditional drinking fountain and it has a drain system that eliminates standing water. The EZH2O also contains a 3000-gallon filtration system and a cooling system.  This product would be a major upgrade to many commercial locations. People would have access to cool, filtered water fast. The touch less operation of the bottle filling station is also great for public use where transmitting germs is a big concern. The EZH2O from Elkay allows people to conveniently refill reusable water bottles eliminating disposable plastic bottles from ending up in the trash. When you want to refill your bottle but the traditional drinking fountain is slow or the water is warm; a new bottle of water from the vending machine starts to look appealing. Leading to money spent and another bottle in the trash.
