CHICAGO, Oct. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- With all the media attention paid to the influx of overseas imports of nearly every product under the sun, retailers, manufacturers and warehouse operators may think it's nearly impossible to cost effectively source steel shelving and office furniture from U.S. manufacturers.

"When you figure in transportation and other import costs, the price for U.S.-made product is comparable to or less expensive than the similar imported product, and in most cases, the quality of the U.S. product is better. And, U.S.-made products typically contain more than 50 percent recycled content--something hardly ever found in imported product."
