Made in the USA

You should know why you might be paying a little bit extra for Kleynimals.  Kleynimals are always “Made in the USA.”  While going through the process of creating the keys, I knew that I could probably have them manufactured in China and save some money.  However, it is important to me (and hopefully to you too) to have products that are made in the USA for a number of reasons.  I want to ensure that quality, safe materials and fair labor practices are used in the manufacturing process.  I also want to support the US economy.  The two companies involved in the manufacturing process are both family-owned companies that have been around for at least a couple of generations.  Kleynimals are welded and polished by a talented man (also a proud Veteran and a good friend) in Baltimore, often times with the assistance of his daughter.  Lastly, Kleynimals are assembled and washed by a local non-profit organization that supports developmentally disabled adults in living self-directed lives (The Providence Center).  I hope that Kleynimals make a positive impact on the babies who enjoy them and on the people who help me make them.
