All of our manufacturing is performed in our 165,000 sq. ft. facility located near Cleveland, Ohio. Our facility is the largest vertically integrated, single-site operation in the industry. In addition to manufacturing and assembly, we have closed die forging, tool & die design, product engineering and testing operations under the same roof with customer service and management.  \nMade in America is good business. Not only do we make everything in America, we use American suppliers too. Buying American allows us to have better quality control and a more reliable supply chain. We can work more closely within our walls and with our suppliers to improve quality, reduce costs, and shorten lead times, which means faster service and better products for you.  \nSupport where it counts. SSP products and services are supported by more than 4000 people and 350 distributor locations around the globe.
