At the beginning of this year, 84 Lumber Company launched "We Build American," a well thought-out movement focused to persuade builders, remodelers and homebuyers to use American-made materials when building or remodeling their homes. Since that initial launch, this program has been joined by more than 180 companies selling American-made building products. The premise behind this, of course, is that our country's builders should realize that homes built in the United States can be extremely cost-competitive when put together using domestically-produced building materials and supplies.
According to Stefano Rabaioli, Vice President/Sales & Marketing of Florim USA, "Our company is proud to take part in this commendable initiative. In particular, because it encourages buying American-made building products to improve the economy and create jobs and opportunities in local communities across the country."
