Transcript

Hello and welcome back to our video series discussing the benefits of buying American Made and why that should be considered when choosing your patient warming solution. Our last video highlighted three benefits of buying American Made which included better Product Quality, Lower Environmental Impact and supporting Jobs and the Economy.

This video will highlight four additional benefits of buying an American Made product like the HotDog System.

Benefit 4 – Innovation

The United States is known for being a technology and innovation leader. Augustine Surgical is a highly innovative company with over 200 issued patients. Our CEO, Dr Scott Augustine invented the Bair Hugger Forced Air Warming technology and the HotDog conductive polymer warming technology.

We invest significantly in research and development to offer new product solutions and make our products even safer and more effective.
If you value innovation, new product development and access to state-of-the-art technologies, Augustine Surgical has the solutions for you.

Benefit 5 – Customer Service

American companies, like Augustine Surgical, offer exceptional customer service and technical support. We staff a full customer service department of friendly, knowledgeable and available HotDog technical experts who speak English as a first language. Our customer service department offices are in our facility which gives them access to additional engineering support, unlike an overseas call center. If you require great customer service and technical support for your patient warming system, our American Made HotDog System is the solution for you.

Benefit 6 – Fast Delivery Times

Another advantage of choosing American made is fast delivery times. This is especially important these days as Covid has caused lasting supply chain disruptions.

When you choose foreign-made products, you may be faced with inflated shipping costs and slow delivery times. We source domestic materials and manage our inventory very closely to minimize supply chain bottle necks and to meet our promised delivery dates.

Whether ordering a new system or a replacement component, Augustine Surgical will get you your product in less than 7 days. If you expect fast delivery times and a reliable supply, our American Made HotDog System is the solution for you.

Benefit 7 – Supporting Fair Wages and Worker Safety

Buying goods produced in the United States ensures that you’re supporting businesses that provide safe working conditions and pay fair wages. While foreign labor standards and wages can be inhumane, Augustine Surgical complies with OSHA worker safety laws and we pay high livable wages and full benefits to our staff because we value the prosperity of our employees. If you support fair wages and safe working conditions, Augustine Surgical has the solutions for you.

Summary

In summary, manufacturing in the United States is often more expensive than doing so overseas. Augustine Surgical does all of our manufacturing right here in America because we value our employees, our quality and our customer experience more than driving down costs.

These two videos presented seven benefits of buying America made, which include: better Product Quality, Lower Environmental Impact, supporting Jobs and the Economy, Innovation, better Customer Service, Faster Delivery Times and supporting Fair Wages and Worker Safety.

If you or your clinic needs a patient warming system and you value the benefits of American manufacturing, choose the America Made HotDog Temperature Management System.
