ASA provides a steady hand in uncertain climate

ASA Platinum Supplier Partner Spotlight: InSinkErator

In times of turbulence, it’s always comforting to be aligned with an ally that has your back. 

For InSinkErator and scores of other U.S. manufacturers, we approach today’s tenuous import/export market with confidence knowing that organizations like the American Supply Association are continually at work to identify supply chain issues, provide counsel, and systems to help manufacturers overcome them. 

For that, and the security that our decades-long association with ASA has provided, InSinkErator and our parent company, Whirlpool Corporation, are deeply thankful.

While it’s true that new U.S. tariffs have ushered in a unique set of challenges impacting nearly all  American manufacturers, ASA has remained out front of them. The valuable resources, education, and programs available through ASA contribute in a big way to the strategies we are developing to overcome market challenges, which are no doubt generating economic uncertainty for those of us in manufacturing.

During this period of rapid economic transition, we are grateful that ASA and its members not only understand the contribution that U.S. manufacturers make to our economy, but that they are also actively working as an extra set of eyes and ears to help us anticipate issues and develop plans to overcome them. 

Over the past nine decades, InSinkErator has been out front in the development of new garbage disposal technologies, each designed and built to deliver the convenience your customers want and the quality that affirms. It’s safe to say that no one else understands food waste management solutions like we do. That’s a big reason why InSinkErator continues to be America’s #1 disposal brand*, even after nearly 90 years. 

The intel and direction InSinkErator receives from ASA is invaluable as we adjust our product lines and manufacturing processes to maintain and build upon our leadership position in the industry.

Headquartered in Racine, Wisconsin, we’ve made it our mission to continuously innovate. We’re as proud of our U.S. heritage as we are the quality of our products, and are committed to bringing to market rugged and reliable garbage disposals. Even after nearly 90 years of producing the world’s leading brand of garbage disposals*, InSinkErator remains the only manufacturer of garbage disposals with induction motors invented, designed and assembled in the U.S. 

Our disposals are engineered for long-lasting performance because we build them to last. The same can be said of our association with ASA: it’s truly one built to last.

As we’ve said from the beginning of our association with ASA, InSinkErator is grateful for the investment that your organization is making in education, industry intelligence, advocacy, and other activities that provide direct benefit to us. We also appreciate the contribution ASA has made in helping us develop healthy and strong relationships with wholesale professionals, who are the cornerstone of our business.

Through it all, ASA has been a valuable ally, bringing together the people that provide insights so critical to our business and, as we’ve seen, the entire U.S. economy. Perhaps now more than ever it’s important that manufacturers and those in our supply chains work together to develop plans and systems to beat today’s economic challenges. We celebrate that ASA is helping us do just that.
