Firl Industries Canvis Log Carrier [Guest Post - WisconsinMade.com]

Today I have a guest post from a group that does something quite unique for the products they sell.

Handing off to Amanda from WisconsinMade.com:

I’m Amanda and I blog for the online gift store, Wisconsinmade.com.  When Ryan asked me to do a guest blog post, he mentioned that he likes how Wisconsinmade.com has information about the people who make all of the products and he thinks every website should share that information. The Artisan Info, as we call it, gives shopper the opportunity to read the story about the people who make each gift.  From the cheesemaker who pampers his cows like princesses to the craftsman who designs gifts from a variety of Wisconsin woods, every artisan has a story, and Firl Industries, our log carrier manufacturer, is no exception.

 

In a world where labor is outsourced or done by robots, Firl Industries is unique. The company has been manufacturing canvas products since 1965. The log carriers featured on Wisconsinmade.comare made, not by foreign laborers or machines, but by a qualified sewing staff in Fond du Lac,Wisconsin.  Most of the Firl Industries staff has been employed at the company for more than 20 years. Not only can you feel good about supporting an American company that takes care of its workers, but the functionality of the bag itself is exceptional. The design keeps dirt and wood off the floor, distributes weight evenly for easy lifting, and folds neatly and compactly for convenient storage. With two sizes and six colors to choose from, you are sure to find the log carrier that fits the décor of your home or cabin.  From functional to fun, Wisconsinmade.com is always adding new USA made products, so stop by often to see what else is new.

 

I hope you enjoyed the guest post, Leave a comment and Let Amanda know what you think! At the very least, Stop by the WisconsinMade.com site and pickup some goodies.
