Excel Dryer stays true to its roots with American jobs, quality and craftsmanship
As conversations around tariffs and reshoring intensify, Excel Dryer, Inc., the inventor of the XLERATOR® Hand Dryer, the first high speed energy efficient model, continues to stand firm, building its products in America. From day one, the company made a commitment to manufacture in the United States, not just for economic reasons, but to hold true to its core values.
“We put our sweat into building these dryers, and I'm very proud they're made in America,” said factory plating technician Luis Espinal.
“At Excel Dryer, 'Made in the USA' isn't just a label; it's who we are and in our DNA,” said company COO William Gagnon. “Long before global trade tensions or supply chain disruptions, we made the intentional choice to build our business right here at home.”
Headquartered in East Longmeadow, Massachusetts, Excel Dryer designs, sources, manufactures and assembles all of its hand dryers in the U.S., supporting American jobs and fueling the domestic economy. The company's products are found in airports, stadiums, schools and businesses across the globe, but their origin remains the same: a small town in western Massachusetts with a big heart for innovation, quality and craftsmanship.
For Excel Dryer employees, it's more than just manufacturing, it's personal.
“We put our sweat into building these dryers, and I'm very proud they're made in America,” said factory plating technician Luis Espinal. “Having pride in what I do is very important for me because those covers are all over the world.”
The company credits its success to a family-like culture and strong local partnerships. Many employees have been with the company for decades. Some vendors have partnered with Excel Dryer for over 40 years and are considered part of the extended team.
“We listen to our employees and invest in their well-being,” said Gagnon. “From robotic technology that reduces physical strain to open communication channels that invite input, we're committed to making Excel a safe, supportive place to work.”
